Undoing Aging

Speakers Dr. Laura Niedernhofer and Dr. Paul Robbins from the University of Minnesota. They spoke on aging. 10,000 people turn 65 every day in America. By 2030, the number of individuals aged 65 and older will exceed those under 20. This is the greatest biomedical challenge we are facing today given that old age is the greatest risk factor for most chronic diseases. Bold and new approaches are needed.
