Podcasts about aging consortium

Aging (Aging-US) was a proud sponsor of the “Future of Aging Research Mixer 2024” hosted by the Aging Initiative at Harvard University on November 15 in Boston. This event united a vibrant community of students, researchers and technologists, all driven by a shared mission: advancing innovations in aging research and longevity science. Key Highlights from the Future of Aging Research Mixer 2024 The event kicked off with inspiring opening remarks and a keynote by George Church, professor at Harvard Medical School, founding member of the Wyss Institute, and co-founder of over 50 biotech companies. He was joined by Kat Kajderowicz, an MIT PhD student and Principal at age1. Together, they highlighted the interdisciplinary nature of aging research and its immense potential to drive transformative advancements. Jesse Poganik, HMS Instructor in Medicine and Executive Co-Director of the Biomarkers of Aging Consortium, discussed the evolution of aging science and the critical role biomarkers play in understanding aging processes and assessing the effectiveness of interventions aimed at slowing or reversing age-related changes. Alex Colville, co-founder and general partner at age1, explained how venture capital can accelerate innovation in longevity biotechnology. He shared career advice for aspiring researchers and paid tribute to his mentor, Dr. David Sinclair, a pioneer in aging research. These talks highlighted the importance of mentorship, interdisciplinary collaboration, and investment in driving progress in the aging research field.

The journal aims to promote 1) treatment of age-related diseases by slowing down aging, 2) validation of anti-aging drugs by treating age-related diseases, and 3) prevention of cancer by inhibiting aging. (Cancer and COVID-19 are age-related diseases.)

In this week's episode of the Everything Epigenetics podcast, Dr. Chiara Herzog and I talk about how epigenetics is making waves in the medical world and how it could change treatment. Translational scientist and research fellow Dr. Herzog provides insights from her role in the Biomarkers of Aging Consortium and her work on the TirolGESUND project, one of the largest multi-omic human lifestyle intervention trials to date. We investigate the potential applications of epigenetics in cancer detection, aging biomarkers, and preventive measures that could change the paradigm of healthcare from one that is reactive to one that is proactive. We also explore the fascinating potential of using epigenetic markers to anticipate disease before it manifests itself, particularly in the context of cancer research, and how this could impact the delivery of tailored healthcare.You'll learn about:How Dr. Herzog's background in neuroscience led her to epigeneticsRecent breakthroughs in epigenetics and why they are promising for healthcareThe potential of epigenetic markers to predict cancer risk and diagnose early stages of cancerThe setup and goals of the TirolGESUND study focusing on intermittent fasting and smoking cessationThe importance of studying epigenetic changes across different cell types and understanding the exposomeHow the exposome interacts with our epigenome and its implications for personalized medicineChapters: 00:00 Welcome and introduction02:30 Dr. Herzog's journey from neuroscience to epigenetics05:40 Recent breakthroughs in epigenetic research12:10 Epigenetics and cancer risk: promising findings19:15 TirolGESUND study: setup, interventions, and what to expect27:40 Why studying different cell types matters in epigenetics32:00 Understanding the exposome and its impact on health38:20 Future steps for advancing epigenetic biomarkers in healthcare45:00 Exciting upcoming projects in epigenetics researchSupport the showWhere to Find Us:Instagram Twitter Facebook Follow us on:Apple Podcast Spotify YouTube Visit our website for more information and resources: everythingepigenetics.com Thank you for joining us at the Everything Epigenetics Podcast and remember you have control over your Epigenetics, so tune in next time to learn more about how to harness this knowledge for your benefit.

Here we talk with Dr Andrea Maier of NUS about the work she is doing in rethinking longevity therapies and how they can be delivered. We talk about some of the supplements such as AKG and NMN that they are trialing.

Dein wahres Alter, jenseits der Zahlen auf dem Ausweis, liegt in der Essenz deiner Zellen, deines Stoffwechsels und Immunsystems - ein biologisches Mysterium, das unser Leben prägt. Doch wie misst man dieses unsichtbare Alter?  In dieser Folge hören die Dr. Chiara Herzog, Molekularbiologin, Doktor der Neurowissenschaften und arbeitet als Postdoktorandin an der Universität Innsbruck und Expertin auf dem Bereich epigenetische Uhren und Biomarker. Sie war beim aktuellen Jahrestreffen des Biomarker of Aging Consortium als Mitglied des Komitees und berichtet und von den aktuellen Forschungen zum Thema.  Was kann ich selbst tun, um mein biologisches Alter zu ermitteln und welche Maßnahmen kann ich treffen?  Welche Bedeutung haben digitale Biomarker wie Fitness-Tracker und Smartwatches in der Forschung?  Welche Fortschritte wurden bei der Entwicklung und Implementierung von Biomarker-Tests gemacht, die in der Lage sind, individuelle Gesundheitsrisiken präziser vorherzusagen und personalisierte Empfehlungen zu geben?  Welche neuen Erkenntnisse gibt es über die epigenetischen Uhren und ihre Anwendung bei der Vorhersage von biologischem Alter und Krebsrisiko?  Welche Rolle spielen epigenetische Marker bei der Identifizierung von Krebsrisiken, insbesondere in Bezug auf Zigarettenrauchen und gynäkologische Krebserkrankungen?  Inwiefern könnte die Personalisierung von Gesundheitsvorsorge und -behandlung durch die Analyse von individuellen Biomarkerprofilen verbessert werden?  Diese und viele weiteren Fragen beantwortet Dr. Chiara Herzog in dieser Podcast-Folge.  -------------------------- Mehr über das Biomarkers of Aging Consortium: https://www.agingconsortium.org/   Weitere Informationen zur erwähnten Studie Tirol gesund findest du hier: https://eutops.at/for-participants/tirolgesund   Hier findest du weitere Informationen über Chiara Herzog und kannst Kontakt aufnehmen: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chiara-herzog/   -------------------------- Du interessierst dich für Gesunde Langlebigkeit (Longevity) und möchtest ein Leben lang gesund und fit bleiben?
