How the shifting focus of longevity science is redefining healthspan, human resilience, and the next frontiers in aging research For most of human history, the idea of living into one’s seventies, eighties, or even nineties was something reserved for the rarest few. Infectious diseases, poor nutrition, childbirth complications, and an absence of medical care made […]

In February 2025, a diverse crowd of scientists, investors, policymakers, and visionaries gathered under one roof in Riyadh for the third installment of the Global Healthspan Summit (GHS). Hosted by the Hevolution Foundation, this summit has rapidly grown into the world’s largest conference dedicated to longevity science—not just in length of life, but in the

As we dive deeper into the science of aging, it becomes increasingly clear that the key to living longer—and living better—may lie in unexpected places. One such place is the gut. A remarkable compound called Urolithin A, derived from our gut microbiome, is showing strong potential to combat cellular aging and inflammation, offering a gentler

How the intersection of physics and biology is opening novel pathways to better understand—and potentially intervene in—the aging process As the world of longevity research expands at an unprecedented pace, new fields and disciplines continue to emerge, offering fresh insights into one of biology’s oldest questions: why do we age? While much of the focus

In the rapidly evolving world of longevity science, few ventures capture both the promise and the audacity of the field quite like Vitalia. This newly launched initiative stands at the intersection of two powerful forces: hard science grounded in decades of biological research, and radical, boundary-pushing ideas that challenge our deepest assumptions about aging itself.

A Fresh Year of Breakthroughs in Aging Science, From Brain Protection to Age-Reversing Peptides As we turned the page to a new year, the momentum behind aging research didn’t just continue—it gained strength. January 2025 began with a surge of scientific advances that hint at a future where healthspan, not just lifespan, becomes a central

A New Chapter in the Science of Longevity Aging, once seen as an unalterable progression of time, is now viewed through a more nuanced lens—one shaped by cellular behavior, internal inflammation, and metabolic resilience. Among the constellation of factors influencing this process, a small molecule originating from the gut is quietly emerging as a potential

In a quiet corner of Los Angeles, surrounded by clinical-grade kitchen counters, biometric scanners, and exactly measured plates of plant-based meals, a small group gathers. They are scientists, biohackers, health entrepreneurs, and the occasional celebrity. They’ve all come for the same reason: to share dinner—and ideas—with a man determined not to die.

How the convergence of science, investment, and public interest is transforming the future of human aging There are moments in scientific history that feel like inflection points — times when long-standing fields of study quietly cross into a new phase of growth, recognition, and momentum. For the world of longevity research, that moment appears to

As science races forward in the quest to extend healthspan and combat aging, one of the most exciting and often overlooked aspects of progress has little to do with lab discoveries or clinical trials. Instead, it lies in how scientific research is funded. Traditional models—long dominated by government grants, academic institutions, and private investors—are giving
