On the Future of Aging
Foresight Existential Hope Group.
Program & apply to join: https://foresight.org/existential-hope/
In the Existential Hope-podcast (https://www.existentialhope.com), we invite scientists to speak about long-termism. We release a podcast every month where we interview visionary scientists to discuss science and technology which can accelerate humanity toward desirable outcomes.
Morgan Levine, Foresight Fellow and Xhope Special.
Morgan Levine, Assistant Professor at Yale School of Medicine in the Department of Pathology and a member of the Yale Combined Program for Computational Biology and Bioinformatics and the Yale Center for Research on Aging, is a ladder rank. Her work is based on an interdisciplinary method, integrating theories from statistical genetics and computational biology with mathematical demography, to develop biomarkers for aging in humans and animal models, using high-dimensional data. She has extensive experience as a PI on multiple NIH, Foundation, and University funded projects. She uses systems-level and machine-learning approaches to track epigenetic changes, transcriptomic and proteomic aging.
This information can be used to create measures of risk stratification in major chronic diseases such as Alzheimer’s and cancer. Her work involves the development of system-level outcomes measures of aging in order to facilitate evaluation of geroprotective intervention.
Existential Hope
A group of like-minded people who work together to create beautiful futures in a time when human civilization is at its most challenging. They do this by leveraging knowledge about potential ways to get there, and how to plug in.
