Recent studies highlight the role of specific longevity agents like rapamycin in slowing the aging process in animal models. Namely, scientists believe that rapamycin, proper nutrition, and caloric restriction may slow down the aging process in animal models and may be transferable to human health.

In the latest episode of Longevity by Design, our co-hosts, Dr. Gil Blander and Ashley Reaver, are joined by Dr. Matt Kaeberlein, Professor at the Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology at the University of Washington. Tune in as Dr. Matt Kaeberlein describes the longevity agent rapamycin and its impact on mTOR and the Dog Aging Project, which is investigating companion dogs as a model organism for aging.
