Description: #BrianGreene #Lifespan #Longevity We’re born, we grow old, we die. It’s a rhythm long considered inevitable. But is it? Or is aging merely a disease awaiting a cure? Will science one day stave off aging or even reverse it? Join us as four top scientists explore the biology of aging and recent breakthroughs that, according to some, could have people living healthfully to 120 or beyond by the end of this century. Would you want to? This program is part of the Big Ideas series, supported by the John Templeton Foundation.
