Two recent and exciting collaborations highlighting the benefit of CMA activation in aging. The first is in age-related macular degeneration https://t.co/BnME0HdAVp and the second in restoring brown adipose tissue activity in aged mice https://t.co/QAzwJtouY1 ☺️

Chaperone-mediated autophagy(CMA) regulates neuronal activity by sex-specific remodelling of the synaptic proteome. Modulation of CMA may also have value in the ageing and early AD brain. #autophagy By @Rabiarkhawaja, et al. @AMCuervoLab

🚨 This is the last post in my weekly thread on Rebranding Geroscience 🚨Over the past 4 weeks I've laid out why this is necessary, the mission & vision, and audience‑specific messaging. Now: the program roadmap 🧭. Rebranding isn’t one event—it’s a structured plan to reposition
1. Last week we outlined our mission and vision for rebranding Geroscience. This week, we discuss audience‑specific messaging. Effective communication isn’t one‑size‑fits‑all; it must consider what different audiences care about and what they already know. 🧵
