David Sinclair

As the years go by, we accumulate wisdom and experience, but growing older also brings a host of challenges. Should we simply accept the inevitability of aging, or should we treat it as an illness and pursue science-backed solutions?

Join Professor David Sinclair, a leading genetics researcher at Harvard Medical School and author of Lifespan: Why We Age – and Why We Don’t Have To, as he delves into groundbreaking research that is pushing the limits of what we thought was possible. Discover extraordinary advancements that suggest aging can be slowed, or even reversed.
