Capacity has more than one dimension
LinkedIn caption
🧩 Healthy aging includes the capacity to move, think, maintain psychological health, sense the world and sustain vitality.
The intrinsic-capacity framework discussed alongside ARPA-H PROSPR brings these domains into the healthspan conversation. It encourages a closer look at the pattern of capacities that supports daily life, rather than assuming one measurement tells the whole story.
The ARPA-H-convened recommendations also state a boundary: intrinsic capacity is not currently a validated surrogate for mortality or major disease outcomes. Developing and validating these measures remains part of the research agenda highlighted at ARDD 2026.
