Fasting: tradition, discipline, lifestyle.
Science adds another layer:
How does it affect metabolism, autophagy, and healthy aging? And does it make sense to add controlled fasting periods to your personal routine?

Scientific excellence depends on diversity of perspectives, experiences, and voices!
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.

🔬 Meet Dr. Brigitte Pertschy – Key Researcher @UniGraz & Head of our Training Unit
She studies how ribosomes are built & how this process changes as we age.
💡 Recently awarded a €10M @ERC_Research Synergy Grant for the project 'snoOPERA'! Congrats!
#HealthyAging#Ribosomes
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.

👩🔬Meet our team: Dr. Martina Schweiger from
@UniGraz studies how fat and metabolism shape health, aging & disease - from obesity to cachexia.
Because having too much or too little fat affects us profoundly!

Meet Dr. Thomas Scherer – MetAGE Deputy Director of Research @MedUni_Wien
As a clinician, he's not only interested in the mechanisms of age-related diseases, but also to integrate clinical intervention studies into his research.

Ever feel like your energy just doesn’t bounce back like it used to?
It’s not just age. It's your cells losing their metabolic flexibility.
Good news: we’re learning how to reverse it.

Grateful for the insights&exchanges - and excited to keep building connections that support healthy aging across generations. Want to discuss some points? Enter the conversation👇🔗 https://t.co/o4iwEz0Liw #HealthyAging#MetAGE#LifelongLearning#Innovation#AgingWell#longevity
🧠 We recently attended SENovation Styria, hosted by
@medunigraz
– an event on innovation for healthier aging with voices from science, business & healthcare.
✨ Some Takeaways:
🔹 When is “old” old? → mindset vs. reality
🔹 Don't just innovate for, but with older generation 🔹 Interdisciplinary collaboration is key
🔹 Innovation thrives when young & old work together 🔹 Lifelong learning will be essential in an ageing society
🎥 How does fat metabolism shape how we age? ORF featured 'MetAGE' in a short TV clip on our research about aging and metabolism in cell models and patients.

👋 Meet Dr. Mahmoud Abdellatif @Mah_abdellatif – MetAGE key researcher @MedUniGraz
He studies how aging affects the heart and vessels at the cellular&molecular levels – and how we could slow it down.
