Abstract

Killing senescent cells to improve health-span holds great promise. However, screening for senescence-regulating genes and molecules is challenging because these cells do not proliferate. In this issue, Colville and Liu et al. develop Death-seq, a positive selection screening tool that overcomes this hurdle to offer broad genetic and pharmacological utility.
