The Journal Club for August returns live to the Lifespan.io Facebook channel on September 5th at 12:00 Eastern hosted by Dr. Oliver Medvedik. This time we are taking a look at a paper where researchers have transfered a lifespan and healthspan boosting mechanism from the naked mole rat, a very long lived rodent, to mice. The paper includes researchers such as Vera Gorbunova, Steve Horvath, and Vadim Gladyshev and demonstrates that longevity is something that can be emulated from one species to another.

This study raises interesting questions and possibilities. Perhaps we can learn new tricks from species like the naked mole rat that do not age the same way we do.
