In this episode of Drug Diaries, host Kaushik Trivedi engages with Professor Brian Kennedy, a leading figure in aging research. They explore the molecular mechanics of aging, the significance of metabolic health, and the role of various pathways and interventions in promoting longevity. The conversation delves into the importance of understanding aging as a conserved biological process, the development of clinical aging clocks, and the potential of geroprotective interventions in healthcare. Kennedy shares insights from his career, emphasizing the interconnectedness of aging pathways and the need for actionable measures in clinical settings. In this conversation, Kaushik Trivedi discusses the latest advancements in aging research, focusing on the role of Alpha-Ketoglutarate (AKG) in promoting healthspan and longevity. He emphasizes the importance of precision medicine in tailoring interventions for individuals, the challenges of designing effective clinical trials, and the need for research and development in aging supplements. Trivedi also highlights the economic and societal impacts of aging, advocating for preventative approaches and accessibility to anti-aging treatments. He calls for a shift towards human studies in aging research and shares insights on the narrative around aging and intelligence, as well as the positive changes in older adults. The conversation concludes with advice for young researchers and a hopeful outlook on the future of aging research.
