After four weeks of using the cream, participants lowered the biological age of their skin by about two years on average. A wave of biotech companies is looking to prove that it's possible to slow down the aging process. Mountain View, California-based Rubedo Life Sciences is starting with the most outwardly visible sign: the skin. The company's experimental treatment is showing early promise that it may be able to reduce the appearance of aging, according to data the company presented at the Aging Research and Drug Discovery meeting in Boston earlier this month. In a small clinical trial, Rubedo tested its topical cream on 11 people with atopic dermatitis, an inflammatory skin condition and the most common type of eczema.

Image caption, More than 2,000 images were taken of Ruth's skin I don't mind having my photo taken - triple checked and filtered for Instagram - but 70 cameras pointing at me while I'm down to my knickers is a bit daunting. A robotic voice tells me to stay still and close my eyes as I stand in a huge curved scanner while classical music plays in the background. With a flash of light, 2,000 photographs are taken of my body, in the hope of capturing every mark, freckle and mole to analyse for different skin cancers. This full-body scan is happening at a sci-fi-style clinic in Manchester city centre, with me wearing a dressing gown and hexagon-shaped rubber slippers. The millions of data points collected will create a 3D avatar of my body using AI.

Sun hoodies are the greatest new garment since the original hoodie. I grew up in the late 1900s, in a time when attitudes toward sunburns were extremely lax compared to today. Red, peeling skin was seen as a minor and temporary inconvenience and the natural outcome of an active childhood, not a reckless lifestyle choice with potentially deadly consequences. There were little brown bottles of coconut-scented low-SPF suntan oil around, but no one took it very seriously. We were kings--buttered up in Hawaiian Tropic, Jams billowing in the breeze, sipping ice-cold Crystal Pepsi with candy cigarettes dangling from our lips.

Recent advances in computational pathology have led to the emergence of numerous foundation models. These models typically rely on general-purpose encoders with multi-instance learning for whole slide image (WSI) classification or apply multimodal approaches to generate reports directly from images. However, these models cannot emulate the diagnostic approach of pathologists, who systematically examine slides at low magnification to obtain an overview before progressively zooming in on suspicious regions to formulate comprehensive diagnoses.
