Abstract

This paper introduces the scientific significance of aging research, and summarizes the biological mechanisms behind aging in previous studies. Besides, it raises several key questions that need to be answered urgently in this area, and indicates that the emerging multiomics research method is an important development direction to explore the biological mechanism.
