Summary
Scientists developed precision gerontometry to accurately measure aging. This new method uses metabolomics to track age changes within a month, speeding up the discovery of effective anti-aging interventions.
Area of Science:
- Gerontology and Gerontological Science
- Metabolomics and Biomarker Discovery
- Preventive Medicine and Longevity Research
Background:
- Aging is a primary risk factor for chronic diseases and mortality.
- Accurate measurement of aging is crucial for developing interventions.
- Current methods for assessing biological age lack precision.
