Could we reverse epigenetic aging by re-growing the thymus? In the future, will it be possible to extend our lives or increase our longevity? Dr. Greg Fahy is a low-temperature biologist and investigator of aging intervention in humans. His first clinical trial, intended to reverse immune system aging, provided evidence that aging could be reversed in humans.

    Death is the 2nd most cruel thing you can do to a sentient being. Physical and mental deterioration is the worst.
  • Well done! Good work, gentlemen scientists! Aging is humanity's worst enemy, but by working together we can defeat it. And you stand at the turn of this battle. Thank you for your incredible efforts! Sorry about my English, I'm from Russia, the whole world community is watching you!
  • 10 years ago there was only Aubrey DeGrey talking about anti aging, now there are so many of them crossing into this field, that gives me hope
  • Dam I need to keep an eye on this guy as he is a genius just like David Sinclair

    Why is EVERYONE not contributing their resources and intellect to this cause? Is this not the number one enemy of every human, that we age and die? What else can deserve more of our attention?
  • awesome talk, lifespan increase is the next greatest human achievement waiting to be discovered.
  • God, if we could all go back in age and do some good and make up for our mistakes and make the world better.

    The day we get to leverage time, our greatest asset will be amazing. Hope were alive to see it ☺️

    Had no idea this guy is 71 years old and he regrew his thymus decades ago. There has to be a connection to his youthful look.
  • @Geroscientist
    Just found out this guy is 71 years old. That is actually unbelievable.
  • @NomenNominandum
    This cocktail could be the magic bullet to prevent death from COVID-19 in old people.
  • Looks like Greg Fahy's been taking the treatment as well. In a more recent video, the grey hairs in his moustache are gone. And he looks younger!
