In this episode, we talk about a recent study from Nature Aging that suggests aging may not progress in a straight line. Using data from thousands of biological measurements, researchers identified key ages—44 and 60—where changes in aging appear to accelerate. We review what this means for our understanding of aging, how it affects multiple systems in the body, and the potential implications for health and disease. We also discuss what this study tells us—and doesn’t tell us—about the biology of aging and how it could guide future research.
