BIONews + Future of Medicine- Eric Topol on the Future of Healthy Aging w/ Euan Ashley
Euan Ashley interviews Eric Topol. The Future of Medicine, welcomes Eric Topol, MD, cardiologist, scientist, bestselling author of Super Agers, and founder of the Scripps Research Translational Institute, whose work has helped shape the field of digital medicine and the use of data, genomics, and artificial intelligence to personalize care. Dr. Topol reflects on how medicine is shifting from treating disease to preventing it, and why extending health span—the years we live in good health—may be one of the most important goals in modern science. He explains how advances in biomarkers, wearable technology, and AI are making it possible to predict disease risk earlier and intervene before conditions like heart disease, cancer, and Alzheimer’s develop. Dr. Topol also discusses the science behind “super agers,” people who remain physically and cognitively healthy well into older age, and what research is revealing about the roles of the immune system, inflammation, lifestyle, and emerging therapies in determining how we age. Looking ahead, Dr. Topol shares his perspective on the future of preventive medicine, including how AI-driven prediction, organ-specific aging clocks, and new biological insights could transform healthcare from a reactive system into one focused on keeping people healthy for as long as possible.
