Professor Brian Kennedy from the National University of Singapore is one of the world's leading researchers in the longevity field and has done longevity research for more than two decades. He is active in many different longevity companies and has been the President and CEO at Buck Institute for Research on Aging. Throughout the years he has made many different important and revolutionary longevity discoveries. Currently he is also one of the persons who is trying to move the longevity forward in a much efficient and faster way. This work he is doing in Singapore where he is leading a huge longevity research project. This unique project is something we are going to talk about in the podcast. We will also talk about his research on Rapamycin and other interesting longevity topics.
