"I'm spearheading the global crusade to defeat aging" - Dr Aubrey de Grey
Dr Aubrey de Grey, author of the book, 'Ending Aging: The Rejuvenation Breakthroughs That Could Reverse Human Aging in Our Lifetime', will present his views on the ethics of radically postponing age-related ill health. Dr de Grey believes that the key biomedical technology required to eliminate ageing-derived debilitation and death entirely is now within reach. Professor Jason Powell and Dr Sarah Chan will then respond in what is expected to be a lively and challenging debate.
