Can the Fountain of Youth be found in #plasma? Dr. Steven Braithwaite of @AlkahestInc discusses how therapeutics can be found from plasma #chronokines from younger patients can normalize the cognitive 🧠 aging process in older patients. Whoa! #SFStatepm12
Dr. Judith Campisi's @BuckInstitute work with #senescentcells offers many known phenotypes that confirm causation of #aging, but also some that affect the phenotypes. Some functions are antagonistic, but senescent cell activity can be beneficial! #SFStatepm12
Senolytics & Healthspan. Dr. James Kirkland @MayoClinic describes past treatments of aging have been a #whack-a-mole approach, but modern discovery in targeting #senescentcells yields that quality of life can be maintained with age. #SFStatePM12
