#2 - Dr. Jean Hebert | Brain Aging, Tissue Replacement & Radical Strategy to Fight Aging

Описание: Live Longer World Podcast #2

Jean M. Hébert, PhD, is a Professor of Neuroscience and Genetics at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York.

Dr. Hebert was fascinated from a young age by how a single cell forms the whole human body following an innate genetic program and he got excited by how knowledge of this process might be used to improve our biological fates and defeat aging.

He is a molecular geneticist by training and obtained his Ph.D. from the University of California, San Francisco, before specializing in the study of how neural stem cells form the brain at Stanford University.

His lab is now developing ways to use cell and tissue replacements to repair and rejuvenate the brain. More specifically, the Hébert Lab is engineering tissue that increasingly resembles normal neocortex, the part of our brain that performs our highest cognitive functions, and testing the ability of this tissue to integrate with the host brain.

Jean is the author of the book Replacing Aging.

We had an extremely interesting conversation ranging from why Dr. Hebert thinks the other methods to fight aging may not work if the goal is to beat aging, we discuss 3D organs and tissue cell replacement and we also discuss the neocortex and what it takes to replace one and lastly we talk about how plasticity in the brain works.

Even if you are not associated with the field of longevity, you’ll find this conversation interesting and refreshing.
