• Pretty crazy Joe Rogan epiisode with a Harvard geneticist claiming they can reverse aging -- literally turn 90 year old cells into 25 year old cells - By Alpo August 12, 2026 at 06:06:10 PM
  • I am not smart enough to have an opinion but I have read that Sinclair tends to exaggerate these type of claims.* - By mattb August 12, 2026 at 07:44:06 PM
    • Was what you read written by DoctorD? - By Alpo August 12, 2026 at 07:50:36 PM
  • nothing has changed in regards to aging. The best we can do is "square the curve" and get more people to live longer. Max human lifespan isn't going to change IMHO* - By DoctorD August 12, 2026 at 07:11:12 PM

      • I mean I've studied this for decades, the odds of meaningful maximum lifespan increase are so small as to be difficult to quantify - By DoctorD August 12, 2026 at 08:33:40 PM
  • I would love to see a cure for my wet AMD. When my dry AMD in my right eye turns to wet, I’m screwed (already have wet AMD in left eye) nm - By sim August 12, 2026 at 06:35:56 PM
  • i will say he does have interesting guests that really pique my science interests** - By kal August 12, 2026 at 06:21:15 PM
    • I saw it referenced on Twitter so I went and listened to it. Rogan has turned into a terrible interviewer. Always clowning around. He used to be pretty good.* - By Alpo August 12, 2026 at 06:26:13 PM
