The science of ageing and restoring healthspan

Drug Target Review

It is no mystery that as we age our health starts to deteriorate, and we become increasingly susceptible to diseases. Through years of scientific exploration and research, we now know there are several biological changes that make our bodies more susceptible to disease or injury, and we can target those with therapeutic interventions.

KIF1A

Each week, Dr. Dylan Verden of KIF1A.ORG summarizes newly published KIF1A-related research and highlights progress in rare disease research and therapeutic development. But promising drugs that didn’t make the cut for treating one disorder may still be effective for other rare diseases. What’s a pre-print?

Advanced 3D cell-based technologies

Drug Target Review

The chips can be modelled with primary cells, IPS derived stem cells or patient derived cells and potentiates to unlock molecular mechanisms that drive the disease pathophysiology, holding a greater promise. The first successful chip adaptation to a lung model was first described in 2010 by Donald Ingber, a bioengineer at Wyss institute.
