Every cell in the human body carries the same 3 billion letters of DNA, yet a neuron, a heart muscle cell and a pancreatic beta cell each use that shared code to do entirely different jobs. How cells pull off this trick comes down to epigenetics—chemic…

Many people assume that some memory decline is an inevitable consequence of getting older. But a select group of older adults, known as «SuperAgers,» reach their 80s and 90s while retaining memory performance as good as or better than that of people in…
