Scientists have brought back Dire Wolves from the dead in the world's first-ever de-extinction project…Dire Wolves were large, white-coated canines that disappeared 13,000 years ago, but now three pups have been born back into the world.The mixed DNA was transferred into donor egg cells, and the embryos put into a surrogate mother. She birthed the three healthy pups in October 2024.To discuss the news, and whether or not it's a good idea, guest host Anna Daly is joined by Emma Teeling, Full Professor of Zoology at UCD School of Biology and Environmental Science and Collie Ennis, Zoology Research Associate at Trinity College Dublin.Image: HBO
Cultural omen of darkness, reservoir of deadly viruses - bats don't have the best reputation. But they do have some impressive and potentially helpful biological quirks, including the ability to resist the ageing process.

Our guest in this episode is Martin O'Dea. As the CEO of Longevity Events Limited, Martin is the principal organiser of the annual Longevity Summit Dublin. In a past life, Martin lectured on business strategy at Dublin Business School. He has been keeping a close eye on the longevity space for more than ten years, and is well placed to speak about how the field is changing. Martin sits on a number of boards including the LEV Foundation, where, full disclosure, so does David.This conversation is a chance to discover, ahead of time, what some of the highlights are likely to be at this year's Longevity Summit Dublin, which is taking place from 17th to 20th August.Selected follow-ups:https://longevitysummitdublin.com/https://www.levf.org/projects/robust-mouse-rejuvenation-study-1Topics addressed in this episode include:*) Emma Teeling and the unexpected longevity of bats*) Steve Austad and a wide range of long-lived animal species, as featured in his recent new book "Methuselah's Zoo"*) Michael Levin and the role of bioelectrical networks in the coordination of cells during embryogenesis and regeneration*) Filling four days of talks - "not an issue at all"*) A special focus on "the hard problems of aging"*) The work of the LEV (Longevity Escape Velocity) Foundation and the vision of Aubrey de Grey*) Various signs of growing public interest in intervening in the biology of aging*) A look back at a conference in London in 2010*) Two events in 2013: academic publications on "hallmarks of aging", and Google's creation of Calico*) Multi-million dollar investments in longevity are increasingly becoming "just pocket change... par for the course"*) Selective interest from media and documentary makers, coupled with some hesitancy*) Playing tennis at the age of 110 with your great grandchildren - and then what?*) The possibility of "a ChatGPT moment for longevity" that changes public opinion virtually overnight*) Why the attainment of RMR (Robust Mouse Rejuvenation) would be a seminal event*) The rationale for trying a variety of different life-extending interventions in combination - and why pharmaceutical companies and academics have both shied away from such an experiment*) The four treatments trialled in phase 1 of RMR, with other treatments under consideration for later phases*) A message to any billionaires listening*) A message to any politicians listening: the longevity dividend, as expounded by Andrew Scott and Andrew Steele*) Another potential seminal moment: the TAME trial (Targeting Aging with Metformin), as advocated by Nir Barzilai*) Why researchers who wanted to work on aging had to work on Parkinson's instead*) Looking ahead to 2033*) The role of longevity summits in strengthening the longevity community and setting individuals on new trajectories in their lives*) The benefits of maintaining a collaborative, open attitude, without the obstacles of NDAs (Non-Disclosure Agreements)*) Options for progress accelerating, not just from exponential trends, but from intersections of insights from different fields*) Beware naïve philosophical concerns about entropy and about the presumed wisdom of evolution*) The sad example of campaigner Aaron Schwartz*) Important roles for decentralized science alongside existing commercial modelsMusic: Spike Protein, by Koi Discovery, available under CC0 1.0 Public Domain Declaration
In this episode of Longevity By Design, Dr. Gil Blander interviews Dr. Emma Teeling, a leading bat researcher from the University of Dublin. They delve into the extraordinary world of bats, discussing how these mammals hold the key to understanding disease resistance, immunity, and longevity. Dr. Teeling explains the unique immune system of bats and their ability to suppress inflammation—which is considered one of the primary drivers of aging. Many lessons from bats can be applied to humans, including how bats manage the immune response to viruses. In this conversation, Dr. Teeling also explores the impressive DNA repair mechanisms bats possess and its contribution to bats' healthspan. Dr. Teeling shares insights into her groundbreaking research, which has the potential to uncover innovative treatments for aging and various health conditions. Listen to the full episode to discover how understanding bats can help improve human health and longevity.Longevity by Design is produced by InsideTracker, your data-driven wellness guide for optimizing your healthspan.

We are back! Season 2 starts with a bang! Neil reckons there's an animal that can defy ageing. It's the only mammal that can truly fly and it also doesn't get cancer. The lads chat to zoologist and geneticist, Emma Teeling, about the remarkable world of bats; how they make tequila and, more importantly, why they don't get old. In a terrifying discovery, Dave reveals the outsized body part he shares with some of these creatures of the night.Presented and Produced Neil Delamere and Dave MooreEdited by Cathal MinogueMusic by Dave MooreArtwork by Ray McDonnell Hosted on Acast.

Prof Emma Teeling, head of Zoology at UCD is my guest on the podcast this week. Emma talks about her fascinating research into bats and how uncovering the bat genome may unlock the secrets to health and longevity. Emma discusses how studying bats can impact human health by examining their mechanisms of ageing and inflammation, her field trips to Brittany in France and how bats have undeservedly become the scapegoats of COVID-19.She also discusses growing up in an entrepreneurial household, how being a scientist is like being an elite Olympian and the curiosity that drives her very obvious passion for what she does.Follow Emma: EmmaTeeling1Follow me: MeganHanlon4 This season is kindly sponsored by Bio-Sciences Ltd
Dr. Richard Collins meets up with Professor Emma Teeling from the School of Biology and Environmental Science at Trinity College Dublin to talk about her research into bats.
We check out bats with Emma Teeling, take a look at the North Pacific right whale, there will be some picky eating fish and we take a look closer to home with how climate change will effect common birds.
Vad är liv? Det undrade fysikern Erwin Schrödinger 1943 och hans tal inspirerade till den moderna biologin. 75 år senare möts framstående forskare för att på nytt lyfta vetenskapens ödesfrågor. Erwin Schrödingers föreläsning Vad är liv? Från Trinity College i Dublin gavs ut som bok och inspirerade bland annat Watson och Crick som senare upptäckte DNA-molekylen. I Dublin firad man 2018 75-års jubileet av händelsen genom att bjuda in flera framstående forskare för att försöka upprepa bedriften, ge nya perspektiv, skapa samarbeten över disciplinerna och formulera de viktiga frågorna. Medverkande är: Svante Pääbo, Max Planck-institutet i Leipzig. Luke O'Neil, Trinity College Dublin. Emma Teeling, University College Dublin. James Watson, upptäckare av DNA-molekylen. Leroy Hood, Institute for Systems Biology i Washington. Danielle Bassett, University of Pennsylvania. Bernard Feringa Nobelpristagare och professor vid Universitetet i Groningen. Christof Koch vid Allen Institute for Brain Science. Programmet är en repris från 2018. Reporter: Olof Peterson Producent: Camilla Widebeck camilla.widebeck@sverigesradio.se
