So many open problems out there that need to be tackled. A few of them of them became the foundation for @TTIScience.
I'm delighted to share our curated list of 100 open problems in ageing science. This represents a collective, systematic effort to map the key challenges and knowledge gaps across biogerontology. 1/3 https://t.co/6Kk1yhiFL8

The Ellison Institute of Technology(@eit_cx) is going to spend 10 billion pound over the next decade on science - with a focus on biology and AI - hopefully making discoveries in aging biology. Exciting to see different research models outside of universities taking shape.

People should indeed be really excited about this talk. Probably one of the best I heard on why longevity matters!
So excited to share my @TEDx talk on human longevity soon! Proud to have helped curate this wonderful event alongside @johnkwerner at the @MITMuseum, @WHOOP, and The Quin House. Got to pick some of my favorite people in aging bio (@mkaeberlein, @AlexJColville, @MartinBJensen,
