🌟Defining Senescence🌟 With 300+ experts working on the ICCARP, we discovered that terms related to ageing were used differently in different fields, causing misunderstandings at times. We’re now thrilled to announce the release of standard definitions for key terms in ageing 1/

These definitions unify language across disciplines and will facilitate our mission of classifying and staging ageing-related pathologies. 📢 Help us spread the word! A pre-print of the definitions is available online: doi.org/10.6084/m9.fig…

🔬 Why this matters: Ageing is complex, and inconsistent terminology has been a barrier to understanding. These definitions provide a common framework for clearer communication between scientists, clinicians, and policymakers.
