"We can actually grow little brains in the dish too... And we can age them forwards, make them older... And then we reverse it." - Dr. David Sinclair

Prepare for a journey into the cutting edge of longevity science as Lewis sits down with world-renowned geneticist and aging expert, Dr. David Sinclair. In this electrifying episode, Sinclair unveils the revolutionary concept that aging isn't just a natural process - it's a disease we can potentially cure. From the secrets of 'longevity genes' to the mind-bending ability to grow and reverse-age human brain cells in a lab, Sinclair's insights will challenge everything you thought you knew about getting older.

But this isn't just about extending life - it's about reimagining what it means to be human. Sinclair dives deep into the ethical implications and practical possibilities of his work, offering a tantalizing glimpse into a future where age-related diseases could become a thing of the past. Whether you're a science enthusiast or simply someone who wants to live their best life for as long as possible, this episode is a must-listen.
