Now at Princeton, @clairebedbrook.bsky.social and @ravi-nath.bsky.social led a study during their time as postdocs at Stanford that mapped the full arc of aging in individual vertebrates for the first time, finding that activity levels in young adults may serve as an early predictor of longevity.

Aging may feel gradual… but what if it’s not? In our recent paper, we tracked fish continuously from puberty until death. This gave us a unique view of how aging unfolds across the adult lifespan. 🧵
