Aging has ascended to the forefront of scientific exploration, demanding a concerted global focus. The 2024 China Aging Science Conference and International Conference on Aging Biology hosted a panel discussion that brought international experts to delve into the complexities of aging research. The discussion underscores the imperative need for a multidisciplinary approach, integrating reductionist and holistic perspectives to unravel the molecular and epigenetic underpinnings of the aging process. Experts advocate for elucidating aging mechanisms and biomarkers, with a focus on translating scientific discoveries into tangible societal benefits. The discussion also emphasizes the importance of international and interdisciplinary collaborations, calling for more support to innovate for healthy aging and tackle age-related challenges.
衰老已成为科学探索的前沿领域，需要全球共同关注。2024年中国老龄科学大会暨国际衰老生物学会议举办了一场小组讨论，邀请国际专家深入探讨衰老研究的复杂性。该讨论强调了采取多学科方法的迫切必要性，将还原论和整体论观点相结合，以揭示衰老过程的分子和表观遗传基础。专家们主张阐明衰老机制和生物标志物，重点是将科学发现转化为切实的社会效益。讨论还强调了国际和跨学科合作的重要性，呼吁提供更多支持，以创新促进健康老龄化并应对与年龄相关的挑战。
