Cambrian, identified as a longevity player, is developing an experimental drug said to replicate the biological effects of exercise — a proposition that places it at the intersection of serious metabolic science and one of biotech's most persistently overpromised frontiers.

The news lands alongside a Senate push to document Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s restructuring of the CDC's vaccine advisory committee and new movement from Enanta on its RSV antiviral program.
