About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

In this thought-provoking talk, Carina Kern, CEO of LinkGevity and a leading voice in ageing science, will explore the biology behind how we age and the emerging interventions that could transform our healthspan.

Carina will introduce us to the Blueprint Theory of ageing, and how the triggered molecular pathways uncovered by the theory have revealed the origins of ageing and age-related disease for the first time.

From the role of necrosis in cellular decline to AI-driven drug discovery, Carina will unpack the latest research, and challenge the way we think about ageing, resilience, and longevity - both on Earth and for space exploration where degeneration is accelerated.

Join us as we explore whether science is on the cusp of unravelling one of life’s greatest mysteries - and what that means for the future of medicine.
