This podcast episode is part three of a travel series where Matt recounts his recent trips to longevity and healthspan conferences in Geneva, Chicago, and Mauritius. He shares his experiences with jet lag, workouts, and the contrasting cultures of these events, from the more "alternative medicine" feel of the Geneva summit to the more scientifically-grounded Mauritius conference. A major theme is his critique of the current state of the longevity field, where he advocates for evidence-based approaches and calls out what he sees as misinformation, specifically regarding the overhyping of peptides, stem cells, and the misuse of epigenetic "aging clocks."

Hi, I'm Matt Kaeberlein. I spent the first few decades of my career doing scientific research into the biology of aging, trying to understand the finer details of how humans age in order to facilitate translational interventions that promote healthspan and improve quality of life. Now I want to take some of that knowledge out of the lab and into the hands of people who can really use it.

On this podcast I talk about all things aging and healthspan, from supplements and nutrition to the latest discoveries in longevity research. My goal is to lift the veil on the geroscience and longevity world and help you apply what we know to your own personal health trajectory. I care about quality science and will always be honest about what I don't know. I hope you'll find these episodes helpful!
