“Overall, the most cutting-edge developments when it comes to health span depend on your perspective, says Inouye, who also directs the aging brain center at Harvard-affiliated nonprofit Hebrew SeniorLife.
“If you talk with a longevity researcher, they will wax eloquent on the latest drugs being studied to enhance longevity—mostly in non-human models or animals at this stage,” she says, adding, “to me, the most important work in health span focuses on the importance of prevention.”
