It's one thing to hear the physicians talking about rapamycin for longevity. But today we get to hear for from one of the citizen scientists who is taking it himself. Our guest today is Gregg Davison, a student of longevity science.

It began for him over six years ago when a news article making intriguing claims came to his attention. The series of scientific studies radically extended mouse lives up to 25% longer, all due to a drug, a drug that Gregg subsequently takes. Gregg studies have grown and today he speaks regularly about why and how we age and how a drug may be able to do for humans what it does for other species that has been administered to Gregg has a Bachelor of Science in Biology from the University of Utah. He has worked in the gurney cellular lab on the Human Genome Project, and also as a paramedic in the greater Salt Lake area for over 10 years.
