    Every scientist who studies aging should read and understand this paper. If it holds true we have to rethink how we approach the development of therapies that increase maximum lifespan in humans.
    Aging clocks, entropy, and the limits of age-reversal @fedichev @hacking_aging biorxiv.org/content/10.110… "The entropic character of aging drift sets severe constraints on the possibilities of age reversal. However..." (1/2)

    Matts journey that started with extending yeast lifespan led him to a point where he can show that aging is malleable in dogs. The Dog Aging Project is too important to not be funded, as it is a stepping stone to towards slowing aging in humans. Support letters to @NIHDirector
    Help save the Dog Aging Project. Despite being one of the most influential, productive and impactful NIH supported projects over the past 5 years, the National Institute on Aging has inexplicably chosen to withdraw support for the Dog Aging Project. For now, I’m won't get into

    Tomorrow @davidasinclair and I will discuss #aging, #genetics, and #reprogramming. If you have any questions post them below and @MaxUnfried will collect them for the Q&A. You can still sign up here: bit.ly/3l0B4b1 @NUSMedicine @harvardmed @Tsinghua_Uni

    Would be great to see if some of these people live > 122 years. We know that the aging process is malleable and can be modulated through lifestyle and pharmacology, the next big question is if and how we can impact maximum lifespan, or if the limit is indeed ~120 years of age.
    This is the current real #longevity olympics. 10 oldest people alive right now! Let's see if @bryan_johnson is on that list in the next 65-70 years. Or anyone from the Longevity Community who should have longevity alpha.

    Very cool to see #DAOs gaining tractions. Quite a few people in my lab are involved with them.
    .@NatureBiotech explores the synergy between DAOs & science: • easier funding • greater transparency • robust scientific communities. 🙏Kudos to @whosknave_ from @blockworks for the insightful article! Read more👇 blockworks.co/news/daos-natu…

    This made me smile today. Good old days! Back then I was still doing real science in the lab together with @davidasinclair and @mkaeberlein 😊

    The 1st VitaDAO Conference in Zuzalu was a memorable event, and I was glad to participate. Especially the mix of avantgarde people, combined with the landscape and ocean of Montenegro was a wonderful experience. Wishing @vitadao a successful event in the tropics.

    I can't believe that it's already been more than 8 months since we kicked off the Healthy #LONGEVITY Webinar at @NUSMedicine. Here's the first episode with @mkaeberlein
