CRISPR for Immortality? The Science Behind Gene Editing and Human Longevity


Listen Later

Could gene editing be the key to slowing — or even reversing — human aging?  What if aging wasn't inevitable decline – but a manageable process we could rewrite? In this deep-dive episode, we explore The Promise of a Longer, Healthier Life through CRISPR gene editing – the revolutionary tool turning longevity from science fiction into scientific frontier.

Key highlights: • CRISPR basics: How it precisely snips and replaces genetic code linked to age-related diseases • Targeting the "Hallmarks of Aging": Senescent cells, mitochondrial dysfunction, telomere shortening • Top genetic targets: FOXO3, sirtuins, telomeres – the genes scientists are editing for extended healthspan • Healthspan vs. lifespan: Why healthy years matter more than just adding decades • Real research: Animal models showing dramatic extensions in active, disease-free life • Ethical dilemmas: Designer babies, access equity, and the "forever young" society • Timeline: When human longevity trials might begin & what they could look like • Personal action: How to stay informed and prepare for preventative gene therapies

If you're fascinated by anti-aging science, gene editing, or the future of human potential – this episode is your roadmap.
