Drawing from his decades studying the biology of aging and his research with SuperAgers, AFAR Scientific Director Nir Barzilai, MD, will discuss how the field of aging research has grown from hope to promise: biomedical advances are closer than ever to move from the labs to our lives.
If we can target the biology of aging, Dr. Barzilai contends, we can delay age-related diseases. But in the age of COVID-19, can we all still live healthier, longer—dying “young” at a very “old” age?
In this special event for the general public, co-hosted by One Day University, Dr. Barzilai will share personal stories behind the promising research that is working to help extend our years of health as we grow older.
Presented in celebration of Dr. Barzilai's new book, Age Later: Healthspan, Lifespan, and the New Science of Longevity.
