Ageing is a treatable disease | Nir Bazilai | TEDxBeaconStreetSalon
NOTE FROM TED: Please do not look to this to for medical advice. Aging remains an emerging field of study. TEDx events are independently organized by volunteers. The guidelines we give TEDx organizers are described in more detail here: http://storage.ted.com/tedx/manuals/tedx_content_guidelines.pdf
Ageing has a biology that can be targeted to extend lifespan, quality of life and delay the onset of age-related disease.
We are more imaginative as kids, but we don’t really see ourselves looking like our grandparents… As a child, Nir was intrigued by becoming old. He became a physician and then a Gero-scientist, and was amongst the pioneers that moved the field from hope to promise. He is now the leader of the biggest center in the world for the biology of aging at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, is a founder of a biotech and venture capital, creating drugs that target ageing. He has been an advisor to the government to figure out how to modulate the process of ageing. He is leading a study aimed to get FDA approval for a drug that can prevent diseases of ageing. He will tell us more about the possibility to have a longer life span by ageing later. https://www.einstein.yu.edu/faculty/484/nir-barzilai/ Dr. Nir Barzilai is the director of the Institute for Aging Research at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and the Director of the Paul F.
