This is an excellent map of where longevity starts becoming a development discipline and stops being a vibe. Also, excellent emphasis on the bottleneck beneath the therapeutic buckets: biomarkers, endpoints, and indication strategy. Until aging itself has a cleaner regulatory path, the field will keep proving its case indirectly, one proxy disease at a time.
