What Questions about Rapamycin do you have for Researchers?

Before mTOR modulation changes as we get older, how is mTOR modulated when it is optimal? - This may serve as a template for regulation with Rapamycin.

When does mTOR modulation go from optimal to suboptimal in the aging process?

Thank you for asking and have fun! My father grew up in Novato :slight_smile:

Have there been significant advances in discrimination of senescent vs non-senescent cells or other improved procedures for measuring effect of senolytics?
