The mechanism of action of mRNA vaccines goes far beyond harnessing host cellular machinery to produce antigenic proteins to spur immunity, write Nicolas Hulscher, M.P.H., Peter A. McCullough, M.D., M ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered how molecular "traffic controllers" in cells influence aging and cellular senescence—a state where cells stop dividing but remain metabolically active.

What do your genes have to do with growing old? Quite a lot. But is it due to the actual DNA, or the way those genes are expressed? KPBS sci-tech reporter Thomas Fudge has more on new research that ...
