Dr. Derya Unutmaz is a world-renowned immunologist, systems biologist, and professor at The Jackson Laboratory. With more than 150 scientific papers, he’s a leading expert in immune system research and one of the first scientists to pioneer the concept of digital twins for biology. His groundbreaking work uses AI to model how immunity, metabolism, and aging interact—creating new possibilities for personalized medicine, disease prevention, and lifespan extension. 


Host Dave Asprey and Dr. Unutmaz reveal how AGI will soon outperform doctors, accelerate functional medicine, and optimize human biology far beyond today’s standards. You’ll learn how the immune system drives inflammation and aging, how to re-engineer it for resilience, and why compounds like GLP-1 and metformin may add years to your life. 


You’ll Learn: 

• How digital twins will end human drug testing 

• Why AGI could replace doctors and computer jobs within five years 

• How AI models immune function, metabolism, and aging 

• The role of mitochondria and inflammation in longevity 

• How GLP-1 drugs and metformin extend lifespan 

• What continuous biological monitoring means for health tracking 

• How AI is transforming functional medicine and personalized care 

• Why NAD and energy metabolism are key to human performance 


They explore how artificial intelligence, biohacking, and systems biology intersect to create a smarter approach to health and longevity. You’ll also learn how understanding immune balance, metabolism, and mitochondrial function helps build resilience and extend your lifespan. 


This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, hacking human performance, and extending longevity through personalized medicine, functional biology, and cutting-edge AI innovation. 


This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, hacking human performance, improving mobility, and extending longevity. You’ll also learn how neuroplasticity, metabolism, and brain optimization all connect to the way you move. 


Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind.
