Are we targeting aging the wrong way?

In this interview with Peter Fedichev (@fedichev), CEO of Gero, we discuss why many longevity interventions may only be tackling “level 1” aging.

🎉 Congrats to #AGE2026 Early Career Scholar Awardee Eleanor Sheekey (@BDR_RIKEN)!
Recognized by the #AmericanAgingAssociation, her research studies how the extracellular matrix shapes cellular rejuvenation — uncovering how tissue environments influence aging and regeneration.

[Eleanor Sheekey @EleanorSheekey]

It turns out with a bit of physics, you don't need 300 theories to explain aging—just 3 variables.

In this video I show how this model can be used to categorise longevity interventions into 3 distinct levels based on their potential to extend lifespan.

This week I spoke with Dr Luis Garza about his lab's interest in skin rejuvenation and a recent clinical trial they conducted ectopically placing feet fibroblasts into the thigh to increase skin thickness...

Enjoy!! https://t.co/8mPDAZEEMb

Did you know this about tissue rejuvenation...??

This week I spoke with Jason Mills (@millsjc67 ) about his lab's research on Paligenosis, the process of a differentiated cell re-entering the cell cycle!!

This week I spoke with Christie Wilcox(@NerdyChristie ) all about venomous creatures and how they mastered biochemistry!!

Thank you for coming on the show!

Had a great few days at @YicsaC 2024 - Oxford edition!! Was shocked I enjoyed the other city soo much (😄) but of course was not shocked by the quality of talks/posters and kindness of all attendees!

Have you heard the news?

I made a short explainer video here: (https://t.co/Prkcfg3rsq ) @xprize

Have you always wanted to watch my show on Spotify?

Well, now you can --> https://t.co/HLWYX8xQ2s

I will be backloading older interviews onto the site - so if you missed them already or want to revisit, now is the time! 🔥🔥💪

[Aaron Edwards @aedwards02]

@EleanorSheekey nails it again with a succinct CRISPR-cancer short! Love the blend of smart script and fun visuals. Kudos to the mini-shoutout of @rcm181's multiplex editing for solid tumor CAR-T pre-print! 👏

Ever wondered if blood type is linked with longevity??

Figure 5.3: Thesis submission day with my PhD partner in crime.

@DanisThomas4 and I both handed in yesterday afternoon! We try to look serious here, but the past four years have been much fun! I remain in the @narita_lab until December while I work out what I do next!

[Phum Boonklang @PhumBoonklang]

Thank you @EleanorSheekey for presenting at @eSCAMPS_symp . The Sci-comm workshop was inspiring! 🤩🤩

[Eleanor Sheekey @EleanorSheekey]

Having a great time at @eSCAMPS_symp !! #Scicomm workshop!
