Organismal aging is an unavoidable fate that humanity has faced since ancient times, and it remains a mystery that continues to fascinate many researchers. In recent years, the importance of cellular senescence as a fundamental mechanism of organismal aging has been revealed, and its connection to age-related diseases and functional decline is gradually becoming clearer. In this symposium, we will discuss the latest topics in cellular senescence research with scientists who are striving to understand life sciences through the advancement of research in cellular senescence.
