    Aubrey de Grey: curing aging by damage removal

    Aubrey discusses the implications of the different types of damage accumulating in our bodies and how aging research has evolved to focus on therapies rather than underlying mechanisms to help us reach the longevity escape velocity sooner.

    Alex Wolf - The ageing vs cancer trade-off

    Josh Mitteldorf - Aging as an altruistic programme
