"Average life expectancy is now in the 80's in most developed countries, so we are losing out on 15-20 years of life for most people".
In episode two of Wired UK's four-part documentary series, we head to New York City to talk to Dr. Nir Barzilai and Dr. Ana Maria Cuervo, directors at the Institute for Ageing Research at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, about their extensive and detailed work on the biological, physiological and functional processes of ageing. We also discuss the institute's exploration into what genes are resilient to the negative aspects of ageing, as well as what impact the so-called 'miracle drug' Metformin could potentially have.
