Aging research is quickly evolving to understand how we can live healthier, longer lives. Scientists are looking to centenarians and their family members to reveal how their environment, lifestyle, and genetics contribute to their delayed aging.

In this episode of Longevity by Design, our co-hosts, Dr. Gil Blander and Ashley Reaver, are joined by Dr. Nir Barzilai, Director of the Institute for Aging Research at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Tune in as Dr. Nir Barzilai describes how he pursued a career in aging, where the research stands on metformin and longevity, and the Longevity Genes Project, genome mapping 750 centenarians and their family members to understand the genetic component of aging.
