Engaging and Educating the Public about Aging and Life Extension
Oliver Medvedik, Ph.D.

Hey there, I am Dr. Oliver Medvedik, Vice President of Lifespan.io. For the first time in human history, we can consider bringing aging and age-related diseases under medical control to be a realistic goal.
Emerging life extension technologies could potentially free us from aging and age-related diseases, providing our children and even ourselves with extra years of healthy longevity, independence, and youthful appearance.
