Can We Cure Aging? What if getting old did not mean getting frail and ill? Recent research has yielded a much better understanding of how ageing happens, and how it leads to the ills of old age. And in laboratory animals it turns out to be possible to target ageing with diet and with existing drugs to promote better health in late life. There is now a lot of interest in seeing if we can tackle human ageing to prevent or delay or compress the unhealthy period at the end of life.
