Health span describes the part of the life span during which humans remain healthy. With the rapid increase in the average age of our population, this topic is becoming increasingly relevant. How does science respond to this? Are there already solutions out there that can help us stay younger and healthier for longer? Can we still rely on the old school pharma to tackle these challenges? …and how can we describe the new definition of health? The future wellbeing of humans depends on the answers to these crucial question. Modern science is answering these questions today.
