In the current episode of The VitaDAO Aging Science Podcast, we explore the fascinating intersection of entropy, epigenetics, and aging with our esteemed guests, Peter Fedichev, founder of Gero and a trailblazer in longevity research, and Prof. Jan Gruber from Yale-NUS, known for his deep understanding of the physics behind aging. As we navigate through Peter Fedichev's recent paper that sparked heated discussions on the limits of age-reversal, we'll delve into the science of stochastic changes in methylation patterns, the controversial debate around the reversibility of aging, and the impact of entropy on human longevity. This episode will also shine a light on the vital role of VitaDAO in science funding, the challenges faced by PhD students in today's economic climate, and the exciting potential of naked mole rats in aging research.
