🏡 Some housekeeping before we get started:
I had a longer piece ready as the main feature for this newsletter, but I’ve decided to hold onto it for now - with vacation coming up in late July, I’m trying to build up a bit of material in advance so I can keep the newsletters coming regularly while I’m away. In the meantime, as you’ll see below, there’s still plenty to dig into.
News from around the longevity and health space.
Cellscapes and synthoids
Consider still images, motion pictures and video games. The first is a snapshot of an event, the second a story about an event and the third is interacting with an event. For a long time cell biology has mostly been stuck in the still image phase - capturing static moments of cellular life rather than understanding the dynamic stories unfolding within our bodies. But what if we could reach the video game level, where we don't just observe but actually design and control the action?
