### Why do we age, and can we do anything to stop it?

Join molecular biologist Dr. Karl T. Riabowol for a thought-provoking journey through the history, science, and future of human longevity. From ancient myths to cutting-edge biotech, this TapTalk dives into the cellular and genetic processes behind aging and explores emerging interventions like senolytics, gene editing, and anti-aging molecules.
Expect an eye-opening conversation about how science is redefining what it means to grow old — and what might be possible in the decades ahead.
