Extending Healthy Lifespan: The Promises and Societal Challenges of Longevity Science
Join Professor Joel Rothman, UCSB Director and Founder, Center for Aging & Longevity Studies, for an engaging lecture and discussion on advances in the science of aging and emerging technologies that may soon slow or even reverse age-related decline.
The presentation examines what science tells us about how our own behaviors, from diet and exercise to creative and cultural engagement, can meaningfully alter healthy longevity. It will then explore groundbreaking innovations including gene therapies, cellular reprogramming, AI-driven discovery, and anti-aging vaccines. Professor Rothman will also invite participants to consider the profound personal and societal questions these discoveries raise, from equitable access to how greatly extended, healthier lives will reshape identity, family and retirement. Audience discussion and Q&A will be included throughout. The program is roughly two hours, including a 15-20 minute break.
Speaker: Joel Rothman — UCSB Director and Founder, Center for Aging & Longevity Studies, and Distinguished Professor of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology, and the Wilcox Family Chair in Biotechnology.
