In this episode of the Longevity Optimization Podcast, Dr. DeGray discusses groundbreaking research in aging and longevity, focusing on combination therapies, the hallmarks of aging, and the potential of stem cell and gene therapies. He emphasizes the importance of rejuvenation over merely slowing aging and explores the role of the immune system in health. The conversation also touches on biological age testing, lifestyle factors, and the future of gene therapy in enhancing longevity.

Aubrey de Grey is a British biomedical gerontologist and the founder of the SENS Research Foundation. He is a leading advocate for regenerative medicine, focusing on reversing the effects of aging by repairing cellular damage. Known for his bold vision of life extension, de Grey believes that with advanced therapies, humans could significantly extend their lifespan. He is the co-author of Ending Aging, and his work continues to shape the future of longevity science.

As Canadians brace for “vitamin D winter”—months when the sun’s angle is too low to produce the vitamin in the skin—a McGill University study explains why vitamin D deficiency early in life is associated with a higher risk of autoimmune diseases.

During childhood, the thymus helps train immune cells to distinguish between the body’s own tissues and harmful invaders. A vitamin D deficiency at that stage of life causes the thymus to age more quickly, the researchers discovered.

The study is published in the journal Science Advances.

A simple cheek swab test called CheekAge may be able to predict a person’s increase in mortality risk, according to its developers.
