Longevity Medicine Fundamentals

Assess biological aging and apply evidence-based interventions to support healthspan alongside lifespan.

What this track covers

This track covers the biological mechanisms of aging, how to interpret aging-related biomarkers, and how to weigh interventions targeting metabolic and hormonal function against current evidence. It's built for clinicians who want a structured way to evaluate longevity-focused patient requests without overstating what the data supports.

What you will practice

  • Differentiate biological age markers from chronological age in a patient workup
  • Explain the hallmarks of aging (e.g., genomic instability, telomere attrition, cellular senescence) to a patient in plain language
  • Weigh the evidence strength behind common metabolic and hormonal interventions
  • Identify red flags that warrant referral rather than a longevity-focused workup
  • Build a monitoring plan to track biomarker trends over time

Simulator scenario

A patient in their 50s requests a 'longevity workup' after reading about biological age testing, requiring the clinician to take a history, decide what evaluation is evidence-based, and counsel on realistic expectations.

Board question topics

  • Hallmarks of aging and their clinical relevance
  • Interpreting biomarkers of biological aging
  • Evidence quality for metabolic and hormonal interventions
  • Distinguishing preventive care from unproven longevity claims
