M. Kaeberlein
The fascinating concept of healthspan, which refers to the duration of life spent in good health, is under scrutiny in recent research by Matt Kaeberlein. This paper argues that the absence of standardized metrics complicates scientific studies and calls for caution in using the term healthspan until a comprehensive metric can be developed. Discover how this concept can reshape our understanding of aging and health.
