Researchers at the University of Florida report that lifestyle factors such as optimism, good-quality sleep and strong social support are linked to brains that appear as much as eight years younger than expected for a person’s age. The effect was observed even among adults living with chronic pain, underscoring how everyday behaviors may influence brain health over time.
Researchers at Mayo Clinic have developed an aptamer-based technique to tag senescent, or so‑called “zombie,” cells in living mouse tissues, work they say could eventually support targeted therapies for age‑related diseases. The project grew out of a chance conversation between two graduate students, according to Mayo Clinic.

Researchers at Queen Mary University of London have found that rapalink-1, an experimental TOR inhibitor being investigated for cancer therapy, extends the lifespan of fission yeast. The study also uncovered a role for agmatinases in regulating the TOR pathway through a metabolic feedback loop, suggesting potential links between diet, gut microbes, and aging.
