Precision Geromedicine with Andrea Maier

33 min

In this episode, we speak to Prof. Andrea Maier, Director of the National University of Singapore Academy for Healthy Longevity. She is a leading advocate for the early prevention of age-related disease, and sits down with us to talk about the importance of precision geromedicine: an approach that tailors healthy aging interventions to each individual’s unique biological aging trajectory. Presented by Dr. Asya Martirosyan and Dr. Jessica Foley, on behalf of the Academy of Geroscience. For more information about the Academy of Geroscience: https://academyofgeroscience.org/

The Geroscience Revolution with Nir Barzilai

46 min

In this episode, we spoke to Nir Barzilai, Professor at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and our very own Academy of Geroscience President. Our conversation spanned the past, present, and future of geroscience: from Prof. Barzilai’s early motivations for dedicating his life to studying aging, to his visions for the field going forward.   Presented by Dr. Asya Martirosyan and Dr. Jessica Foley, on behalf of the Academy of Geroscience.

Biological Clocks with Luigi Ferrucci

27 min

In this episode, we spoke to Dr. Luigi Ferrucci, Scientific Director at the National Institute on Aging, about his recent publication on a current hot topic in geroscience: epigenetic clocks. Is your "biological age" older than your "chronological age" - and if so, what does that mean for your health? Presented by Dr. Asya Martirosyan and Dr. Jessica Foley, on behalf of the Academy of Geroscience.

Nature vs. Nurture with Uri Alon

24 min

For our very first episode we caught up with Professor Uri Alon from the Weizmann Institute of Science to discuss his new answer to the age old question: when it comes to lifespan, is it nature or nurture? Presented by Dr. Asya Martirosyan and Dr. Jessica Foley, on behalf of the Academy for Health and Lifespan Research. Recorded live from the Academy's 2026 Conference, audio quality will improve in future episodes.
