Kevin Perrott's thesis on aging and its impact on the organization Open Cures. The episode also delves into the use of multi-omic data and the importance of biobank donations and giving blood. The conversation touches on the potential for colleges and students to be a focus for Open Cures and highlights bottlenecks that the organization currently faces. The episode also covers the topic of how many people Open Cures needs for their biobank and the use of platforms like Kickstarter and lifespan.io to show people where their money is going. Additionally, the episode explores the application of AI and machine learning in Open Cures, the benefits of open-source in biotech, and the possibility of Open Cures making money through longevity research. The episode also touches on the importance of data collection, current research in longevity, and the work of various scientists and researchers in the field. The episode ends with information about internship opportunities at Open Cures and tips for optimizing longevity through exercise, diet, and supplements.
