This week on the RAZOR Podcast, Shini Somara and Emma Keeling hear about a revolutionary new therapy that could challenge the aging process.
Glenn Jeffery from University College London has been working on a way to slow down the aging process by focusing on “recharging” mitochondria. His team has been using red light therapy on fruit flies and has started to move into human trials [04:42]. We speak to evolutionary biologist Nick Lane who explains why mitochondrial therapy could be a game-changer for medicine.
In what’s exciting us in science this week, Shini Somara tells us about a unique way of measuring whale populations [13:39] and Emma Keeling finds a surprising new way to use soda bread [17:06].
