In this talk, molecular biologist Dr. Dana Larocca will explore the central thesis that biology is far more flexible than we once imagined. Drawing from her new book Reprogramming Life: Beyond the Limits of Aging, Gender, and Identity, she will trace her career as a scientist devoted to extending healthy human longevity. From an insider’s perspective, she will share its major milestones, from gene therapy, stem cells, and regenerative medicine to cellular reprogramming and the study of extreme human longevity.
