This book provides an overview of recent advances in the study of aging and aging related diseases, discussing the topics at individual, organ, tissue, cell, and molecular levels. It also presents studies on the biomarkers of aging and anti-aging interventions.

Aging has been becoming a global health problem. However it was not possible to determine aging as we usually diagnose a disease because there are few biomarkers for age estimation. Since ancient times, people have been seeking anti-aging substances and methods for achieving immortality, while the scientific study of aging has only existed for 100 years. This book appeals to researchers both in institutes and in pharmaceutical companies interested in further studies in this field.




Dr. Zhao Wang is a Professor at the School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Tsinghua University, China. He is also a Project Professor at the National Okayama University, Japan. Dr. Wang is a senior member of Chinese Pharmaceutical Association and foreign member of the Pharmaceutical Society of Japan. He serves(d) as the editorial board member for numerous academic journals, such as Scientific Reports (USA), Pharmazie (Germany) and the Journal of Pharmacological Sciences (Japan). His research focuses on the mechanisms and interventions of aging. He has published more than 90 research articles in international journals in this field.
