Gene Therapy Targeting Diseases Of Aging | Prof George Church Interview Series Episode 2

In this video Professor Church talks how he is using gene therapy to target aging and the benefits of gene therapy when compared to using small molecules. He talks about the study where his lab used a small number of gene therapies to target five or more diseases of aging and the follow up they are now doing.

George Church is the Robert Winthrop Professor of Genetics at Harvard Medical School, a Professor of Health Sciences and Technology at Harvard and MIT. Professor Church helped initiate the Human Genome Project in 1984 and the Personal Genome Project in 2005. He is widely recognized for his innovative contributions to genomic science and his many pioneering contributions to chemistry and biomedicine. He has co-authored 580 paper, 143 patent publications & the book "Regenesis".

Amazing !
"You just have to convince it that it is a young cell, and it starts behaving like a young cell"

[paulak]

One question I'd been keen to ask George Church is when does he plan to use any anti-aging technologies himself, and what would his regime be?

[BrentNally]

Great updates from George. Thanks Richard!

[viktorboyko]

You sly dog. Releasing these in multiple parts. I was tickled when there were more episodes of Dr. Church. Good job. My favorite guy right here besides Elon Musk

[konagraziosi]

Hope this interview can reach more people!

[eugeniebreida]

Autoimmune disease mechanisms, please!

[surfreadjumpsleep]

Amazing. Richard you really hold your own whilst talking with the greats. What was the name of the paper for papers that you referred to in this video?

[debasishborthakur]

Hie.. Can Gene therapy reverse the aging process??

[JohnAMozzer]

Richard, can you put your full name somewhere in the description of each video? I realize it must be somewhere on your channel. But I don't see it under this individual video, for example.

[IaN]

It's the opposite. Bioavailability is always a problem with large molecules and nucleic acids but not small molecules.

[cybair]

Gene therapy is surprisingly effective. Can't wait for the dog results.

If I had to put money on who helps us reach escape velocity first, my $$ would be on George Church . Then Aubrey De Grey . My long shot would be Harold Katcher .... Still have high hopes there ! Lol

[tomrobertson]

You have to keep up with his jargon .
He seems willing to answer good questions but he rolls his eyes with a bad one
