Description
Summary:Abstract Age-related diseases and syndromes result in poor quality of life and adverse outcomes, representing a challenge to healthcare systems worldwide. Several pharmacological interventions have been proposed to target the aging process to slow its adverse effects. The so-called geroprotectors have been proposed as novel molecules that could maintain the organism's homeostasis, targeting specific aspects linked to the hallmarks of aging and delaying the adverse outcomes associated with age. On the other hand, machine learning (ML) is revolutionising drug design by making the process faster, cheaper, and more efficient.
