Goals and challenges for senescence research

Nature has published a commentary outlining the goals and challenges facing research into cellular senescence, the process by which cells stop dividing and accumulate with age. Scientists working on senescence see it as central to understanding ageing and age-related diseases, including cancer and degenerative conditions, but the field faces open questions about how to measure senescent cells reliably and whether clearing them safely can improve health in humans.

Why now: Interest in ageing biology and potential anti-ageing therapies is growing, prompting leading journals to assess where the field stands.
