Webinar

Unpacking Biohacking for Longevity

Thursday, March 12, 2026

12-1pm ET (9-10am PT)

RSVP Here

Biohacking is a rapidly rising approach to extending health that combines science, lifestyle changes, smart tools, proactive diagnostics, and actionable biodata, with aims of "optimizing" cellular function and vitality. At its most accessible, biohacking approaches include tracking through wearables and biosensors and lifestyle interventions like diet and sleep. At its most extreme, other biohacking strategies include conducting self-experimentation outside of a lab setting or implanting technology to enhance physical abilities.

Proponents pose that biohacking can help advance personalized medicine to extend healthspan, while skeptics raise concerns of ethics, access, and scientific rigor. The upcoming free webinar is a highly scientific, evidence-based discussion on the topic with leading medical doctors and academics.
