Engaging and Educating the Public about Aging and Life Extension

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. If you are new to the topic of rejuvenation biotechnology and its potential to increase healthy human lifespans, you may wish to start with the basics and read our introduction to life extension.

As part of our commitment to education our goal is to share evidence-based knowledge about aging and rejuvenation among the general public, the business sector, policymakers, and philanthropists. To achieve this goal we engage in a number of educational initiatives covering topics such as lifestyle, supplements, biology of aging and advocacy.

I also host the monthly Journal Club, a livestreamed show where I dive into the latest research papers and discuss them with guests from the Lifespan Heroes.
