Dog Aging Project retweeted
I'm excited to share the very first episode of Longevity for Dogs, the new podcast from the Dog Aging Institute @dogaginginst . youtube.com/watch?v=6-v5942W… For our inaugural episode, I sat down with my longtime collaborators and friends, Kate Creevy and @DPromislow , to tell the story of how the @DogAgingProject began, why we believe aging biology can transform veterinary medicine, and what we've learned from studying more than 50,000 companion dogs. We discuss: • Why aging itself is the biggest risk factor for most chronic diseases in dogs • The scientific rationale for targeting the biology of aging rather than individual diseases • The origins of the Dog Aging Project and the challenges of launching a nationwide longitudinal study • The development of the TRIAD rapamycin clinical trial • What we've learned from following tens of thousands of dogs over time • Why healthspan—not just lifespan—is the goal • The vision behind the Dog Aging Institute and where the field is headed next This work has always been grounded in open science, collaboration, and a shared commitment to improving the lives of companion dogs and the people who love them. If you're interested in aging biology, veterinary medicine, or simply want your dog to enjoy more healthy years, I hope you'll check it out. And if you're already part of the Dog Aging Project community—thank you. None of this would be possible without you. 🐕❤️
