The FY24 Labor HHS appropriations bill (signed by Biden) directs NIH to track geroscience research as a category! This is important because it is difficult for Congress to propose an increase in funding for geroscience in the absence of knowing what the current NIH baseline is.

in 2007, DARPA put out 23 mathematical challenges which are about as undefined as they can get including finding a "mathematical theory of the brain" and the "fundamental laws of biology" (the 100 year question) so many biology problems! web.math.utk.edu/~vasili/refs/d… (h/t @_julesh_)
How do we move from lab to clinic for an aging intervention in *this* decade? I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about this question and created a framework dubbed the longevity funnel framework (LFF) to answer it:
Fast Biology 🚀 Cells are crowded, frenzied places. Sugar molecules cruise at 250 mph. ATP synthase whips around 134 times per second. But these numbers seem made up. How do we know they're real? My first editor's column for @AsimovPress. asimov.press/p/fast-biology

Matlab is maligned, sometimes for good reason, sometimes unfairly. But there is this thing in it called the backslash operator. A\b “solves” Ax = b. But this operator has like half of numerical linear algebra in it. It actually does this.
