Longevity escape velocity, zombie cells, senolytica, mTOR, rapamycin and Yamanaka factors, whether these are familiar concepts or they are new to you, Peter Ottsjö, who is an author and a science and technology reporter at Ny Teknik and co-host of this podcast, has written a book that explains them and connects them to a project that might be the greatest revolution in the history of humanity: the longevity revolution.
Not content with learning about the theory of longevity, Peter has also put what he has learnt into action. His goal is to live beyond 120 years, or, more precisely, his goal is to stay young forever, as is also the title of his book, Evigt ung in Swedish; Forever Young in English. In this episode we will hear from Peter how he plans to accomplish this goal. The interview will take us from the history of ideas of longevity to the latest science and thereby provide a great base and overview of the topic. Peter has a great gift of explaining science and technology in a clear and vivid, and even fun way.
