In the 75th episode of the Ayık Kafa podcast, Dr. Esra Çavuşoğlu, PhD,welcomes Dr. Bill Andrews, PhD.
Dr. Bill Andrews, is an American geneticist known forhis work on cellular aging and telomere research. He has conducted studies on slowing down aging by activating the telomerase enzyme. Through his work at Geron Corporation and later founding Sierra Sciences, he has become a pioneerin this field.
In this conversation, Dr. Andrews discusses the complexities of aging, the role of telomeres and telomerase in the aging process, and the potential for gene therapy to reverseaging. He emphasizes the importance of inflammation as a primary cause of aging and explores the implications of considering aging as a disease. The discussionalso covers the challenges of funding in aging research, the impact of lifestyle choices on telomere shortening, and the promise of plant extracts intelomere research. He shares his vision for a future where aging can be cured, highlighting the need for collaboration and community in this pursuit.
