Using Public Support to Lobby for Greater Public Funding of Aging Research
I don't pay a great deal of attention to the political lobbying efforts that take place in the community of supporters of aging research, as governmental funding is usually the last to the table, arriving long after the hard work of opening up a new field is done. There are a number of lobbying groups actively working in the US political system, and some single-issue political parties in Europe performing an analogous function. The material here is an example of the work taking place amongst those who lobby, the Alliance for Longevity Initiatives in this case. It is the business of persuading politicians that it is in thei...

Hackers, Breaches And The Value Of Health Data: 2022 E-Book Update
As solutions like remote care are becoming the norm, 3D printing disrupts the normal supply chain and the number of life science studies on tools like artificial intelligence (A.I.) skyrocket, it’s become clear that we are not anticipating the digital health era; we are in the digital health era. This was to come sooner or later, but the pandemic accelerated the process by years. However, along with the enhanced healthcare landscape that digital health brings along, there is the pressing issue of privacy. To put it bluntly, there is no digital health without sacrificing a part of our privacy. The advanced techno...

The New Deal and Recovery, Part 20: The Phantom Depression
George SelginIt was supposed to be a  debacle.As the Second World War drew to a  close, the nation’s leading economists feared that, once the armed services demobilized, at least 8 million men and women, perhaps many more, would be unemployed. That meant an unemployment rate of 12 percent—almost as high as the rate before Hitler raided the Low Countries, setting off the “ wartime boom.” If their forecasts were reliable, they meant that the postwar economy could end up being no closer to recovery than the prewar economy had been.A Worst ‐​Case ScenarioOf course, such dire predictions weren ’t unconditional....

Fight Aging! Newsletter, August 8th 2022
In conclusion, aging research will benefit from a better definition of how specific regulators map onto age-dependent change, considered on a phenotype-by-phenotype basis. Resolving some of these key questions will shed more light on how tractable (or intractable) the biology of aging is.

Aging and the Severity of Inflammatory Infectious Disease Such as SARS-CoV-2
This article provides a pathophysiologic view of COVID-19 in older adults within the frame of inflammaging, with a focus on antiinflammatory treatments for acute and postacute disease. How can Biology of Aging Explain the Severity of COVID-19 in Older Adults Aging has been identified as one of the most relevant risk factors for poor outcomes in COVID-19 disease, independently from the presence of preexisting diseases. The COVID-19 mortality risk sharply increases for elderly subjects, as showed by the reports of China, Italy, and the United States. In particular, in Italy, case fatality rate for patient a...

Fight Aging! Newsletter, August 1st 2022
In this study, we used the recently released Infinium Mouse Methylation BeadChip to compare such epigenetic modifications in C57BL/6 (B6) and DBA/2J (DBA) mice. We observed marked differences in age-associated DNA methylation in these commonly used inbred mouse strains, indicating that epigenetic clocks for one strain cannot be simply applied to other strains without further verification. Interestingly, the CpGs with highest age-correlation were still overlapping in B6 and DBA mice and included the genes Hsf4, Prima1, Aspa, and Wnt3a. Furthermore, Hsf4, Aspa, and Wnt3a revealed highly significant age-associated DNA methyla...

What ’s in the Collins‐​Manchin ECA Reform, and Where It Goes From Here
ConclusionIn light of the current law, the situation we faced in the 2020 election, and the threats looming for the 2024 election and beyond, the Collins-Manchin ECRA bill would be a vast improvement. If faced with a choice between the status quo and passing this bill as-is, there ’s no question that ECRA would substantially reduce the risks of a catastrophe.As the legislative process moves forward, there are still some details to iron out and some holes to plug. Luckily, signs are positive that these concerns will be addressed and that none of them are insurmountable political hurdles. The ECRA draft is an excellent sta...
