Biogerontology

Biogerontology

Biogerontology is the scientific study of biological processes that drive aging at molecular, cellular, and systemic levels. It seeks to understand why organisms age and how aging influences disease susceptibility and lifespan. Biogerontology investigates mechanisms such as genomic instability, epigenetic change, mitochondrial dysfunction, cellular senescence, and altered nutrient sensing. This field provides the biological foundation for interventions that target aging itself rather than individual diseases. Biogerontology integrates data from genetics, physiology, and systems biology to identify conserved aging pathways across species. Insights from biogerontology guide development of biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and longevity strategies. By uncovering core aging mechanisms, biogerontology supports a paradigm shift toward preventive medicine and healthspan extension.
