Scientific excellence depends on diversity of perspectives, experiences, and voices! Excellence thrives where opportunity is shared. On the International Day of Girls and Women in Science, we recognize the researchers shaping the future of #HealthyAging. #WomenInScience #GirlsInScience #MetAGE

Excellent research requires excellent teams! We are happy to have such a team! At MetAGE, we explore how interconnected metabolic processes shape health over time and how we can support healthy aging, together. #MetAGE #HealthyAging #Metabolism #Longevity

New review from our team — Subhash Khatri, Mahmoud Abdellatif, and Simon Sedej from @medunigraz.at For longevity science, this is a must-read. 👉A deep dive into NAD⁺ precursors, the clinical data behind it & how close we are to slowing human aging sciexplor.com/articles/Geromedicine.2025.0008

🔬 Meet Dr. Brigitte Pertschy – Key Researcher @uni-graz.at & Head of our Training Unit She studies how ribosomes are built & how this process changes as we age. 💡 Recently awarded a €10M @erc.europa.eu Synergy Grant for the project 'snoOPERA'! Congrats! #MetAGE #HealthyAging #RibosomeBiogenesis

Tobias Madl & coworkers show how FOXO4 keeps scenecent “zombie cells” alive by binding to a disorderd region of p53. Blocking this with FOXO4-DRI initiates killing of aging cells - a potential key to anti-aging therapies. @medunigraz.at @utrechtuniversity.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The disordered p53 transactivation domain is the target of FOXO4 and the senolytic compound FOXO4-DRI - Nature Communications

Cellular senescence drives aging, with the p53–FOXO4 axis sustaining senescent cell viability. This study reveals structural insights into p53 binding to FOXO4/FOXO4-DRI, informing the development of ...
