About this listen
It’s a new year which means many of us are focusing on resolutions designed to take better care of our bodies as we age. But, even those conducting research on healthy aging find it a complicated concept to define. To help navigate the topic, Dr. Samantha Yammine is joined by Dr. Paul Robbins, a professor and co-director of the Masonic Institute on the Biology of Aging and Metabolism at the University of Minnesota. Then, Sam investigates what researchers learned from studying the biology and lifestyle of a woman who lived to the age of 117 and how manipulating the mitochondria in a cell can prevent degeneration.
