Aliquot #57: Can aging be reversed?
Aging – a process that began the moment we were born – is generally thought of as inevitable. But could aging become reversible in the future? Technologies like interrupted cellular reprogramming, in combination with future advances in the field of epigenetics, offer the promise that scientists may eventually be able to develop the means to reverse aging. In this Aliquot, featuring Dr. David Sinclair, Dr. Steve Horvath, and Dr. Morgan Levine, we discuss how interrupted cellular reprogramming may reverse aging.
