Sentences with phrase «human healthspan»

Furthermore, given the massive amount of funding allocated to research into facilitating and optimizing space exploration and optimization, the researchers hope to have shown how research into enhancing radioresistance for space exploration could galvanize progress in human healthspan extension, an area of research that is still massively underfunded despite its potential to prevent the massive economic burden posed by the future healthcare costs associated with demographic aging.

It also aims to elucidate the links between aging, longevity and radioresistance, and the ways in which research into enhancing human radioresistance could synergistically enable human healthspan extension, ultimately highlighting how ongoing research into the very well - funded sphere of aerospace research could galvinate progress in biomedical gerontology, a massively under - funded area of research despite the grave economic burden posed by demographic aging» said Franco Cortese, an author of the paper and Deputy Director of the Biogerontology Research Foundation.
