    The Mouse Longevity Chronicles: Unraveling Aging with Dr. Richard Miller during The Aging Science podcast by VitaDAO

    In this podcast, I (@aging_scientist) spoke with Dr. Rich Miller about the ins and outs of mouse aging. The topics we discussed, roughly in this order, included the Interventions Testing Program, rapamycin, mecilizine, and other lifespan-extending drugs. We talked about the importance of genetically heterogenous mouse stocks and the issues with fast-aging progeroid mouse models. We also covered his more recent work on aging rate indicators and the difference between classic biomarkers and aging rate indicators. Finally, we talked about the importance of lifespan research, misuse of the word healthspan, and the emerging use of frailty indices in mice. VitaDAO and Kamil Pabis, MSc (the @Aging_Scientist on Twitter) bring this podcast to you.

    Exploring the Frontiers of Science: Breakthroughs, Funding Challenges, and Replication Crisis with Alaattin Kaya during The Aging Science podcast by VitaDAO

    Slowing aging by a couple of percents would save more money than curing any single disease, be it cancer, heart disease, or diabetes. Aging is, in fact, the major risk factor that all these diseases have in common. For this reason, slowing aging becomes the most efficient path to a sustainable and healthy future for humanity. To get this message out we started The Aging Science podcast. We will bring you interviews and frank conversations with leading experts in the field of longevity, as well as evidence-based health advice to support you on this journey. This podcast is brought to you by VitaDAO and Kamil Pabis, MSc (the @Aging_Scientist on Twitter). In this podcast, I (@aging_scientist) had the pleasure of interviewing Asst. Prof Alaattin Kaya (@akay_lab). We talked about recent breakthroughs in the field, the difficulties of getting funding for risky and novel research, funding agencies, “fishing expeditions”, the importance of overexpression genetic screens in aging research, novel mechanisms of action, and the replication crisis.
