Artificial ovaries, robot embryologists, liquid wombs. Can fertility tech reverse the population collapse?

Martín Varsavsky on the future of IVF. He built five billion-dollar companies in telecom and energy, then aimed all of it at one problem: healthy babies whenever you're ready.

He explains why the embryology lab is the real bottleneck of IVF and egg freezing, how robots now inject sperm into eggs, how eggs matured outside the body cut two weeks of IVF injections to three days, and why normal incubators will soon look inhumane. On his one man quest to fix global birth rates, before it's too late.

AI will be safer than human doctors this year.

Superpower founder Max Marchione explains why health is an information problem a human brain can't solve, how their AI texts members unprompted about things their doctors missed, and why half of humanity will be on a daily peptide within 10 years.

Billions are pouring into AI drug discovery. Zero approved drugs. But that's about to change.

Retro Bio Head of Applied AI Rico Meinl explains protein engineering, virtual cells, autonomous laboratories, AI co-scientists, why generating “black-box data” may matter more than building larger models, and what's required to turn AI breakthroughs into drugs that actually work.

We are already gene editing humans. You just haven’t noticed.

George Church, Harvard geneticist and Human Genome Project pioneer, explains why CRISPR wasn’t the real breakthrough, how multiplex gene editing unlocked organ transplants and de-extinction, and why aging will likely require rewriting many genes at once.

Aging is fully reversible. But neither billionaires nor AI will get us there.

Dr Aubrey de Grey, founder of modern longevity, explains why aging must be treated as a solvable damage problem, why modern longevity efforts are structurally misallocated, why a single breakthrough in mice could trigger a global war on aging, and what happens to society once people expect to live indefinitely.

Designer babies are here - without gene editing.

Nucleus Genomics founder Kian Sadeghi explains how whole-genome sequencing (WGS), polygenic embryo selection, and IVF+ are changing fertility - and why it’s about healthier kids, not eugenics.

We debate trait prediction, polygenic risk, IVF, accuracy vs hype, and how AI will supercharge genomics this decade.
