Yale University researchers have unveiled new findings on slowing the aging process through lifestyle interventions and are leading a significant $37.5 million initiative to advance quantum computing technology.

A recent study by Yale utilized a new class of DNA-based blood tests to determine that diet, exercise, and certain medications can effectively slow biological aging. Conversely, the research indicated that over-the-counter supplements showed minimal impact on this process.

With a five-year, $37.5 million grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF), Yale is spearheading a collaborative effort to overcome the primary hurdle in quantum computing: error correction. This project unites experts from Yale and partner universities across physics, engineering, computer science, and chemistry, aiming to develop quantum machines reliable enough for real-world, large-scale applications.
