Today we explore human longevity and
life extension efforts focused on adding healthy
years to a person's lifespan, and even reversing the aging
process.
My guest is Dr. Aubrey de Grey, a leading
voice in the field and the Chief Science Officer of the SENS
Research Foundation which is doing pioneering work on significantly
extending healthy, active lifespans. Aubrey is a biomedical
gerontologist with a degree in Computer Science and a Ph.D. in
Biology. He is author of the book "Ending Aging" and
Editor-in-Chief of the scientific journal "Rejuvenation
Research".
Aubrey sees life extension as a side effect of his efforts to
make people healthier, and sees no inherent limit to how far this
could ultimately extend. We explore such concepts the "pro aging
trance", "longevity escape velocity" and "comprehensive damage
repair" that can sustain a human body.
