What would you do if you could live forever? Or even another 10, 20, 30 years? Those questions may be worth pondering if we consider aging as a disease that can be cured by medical science. Welcome again to Imagine Human, where we share inspiring visions for the future of humanity. In this episode, we talk with Dr. Aubrey De Grey, the founder of SENS Research Organization, a nonprofit dedicated to curing aging. Dr. De Grey discusses how he and his team have identified seven mechanisms of accumulated damage within the body that they believe are at the root of most chronic diseases, and ultimately, aging. He shares the logic behind this approach, the opposition he overcame from the wider academic community, and the progress of the organization's research thus far.
