In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Judith Frydman to explore proteostasis: the tightly regulated systems that ensure proteins are correctly folded, maintained, and cleared before they become toxic.…
Over the past year, we covered a wide range of ground—from clinicians working directly with patients to top scientists studying the underlying biology of aging. This episode is a chance to look back…
Aging is usually linked to size, metabolism, and inevitable decline—but bats defy all three. In this episode, Dr. Buck Joffrey speaks with Dr. Emma Teeling about why bats are rewriting the rules of…
Longevity medicine is moving beyond symptom management—and regenerative therapies are forcing a deeper look at how healing actually works. In this episode, Dr. Buck Joffrey speaks with the team at…
Aging begins when cellular quality-control systems lose their precision. In this episode, Professor Ana Maria Cuervo outlines how chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA)—a selective lysosomal degradation…
In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Tony Wyss-Coray to discuss his groundbreaking research on brain resilience and aging. He explains how systemic factors, particularly proteins in the blood,…
In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Francisco González-Lima to delve into the metabolic mechanisms that drive brain aging and cognitive decline. He begins by outlining how reductions in cytochrome…
We are joined by behavioral epidemiologist Dr. Kate Wolin to unpack why so many health interventions collapse outside the lab—and what actually drives lasting change in the real world. From…
In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Jennifer Elisseeff to discuss the evolving field of tissue engineering and its applications in regenerative medicine. She explains the shift from using stem cells…
Dr. Heidi Tissenbaum, a molecular geneticist at UMass Chan Medical School, joins Dr. Buck Joffrey to explore what C. elegans worms have revealed about the biology of aging. She explains how these…
