Exploring the Frontiers of Science: Breakthroughs, Funding Challenges, and Replication Crisis with Alaattin Kaya during The Aging Science podcast by VitaDAO

Slowing aging by a couple of percents would save more money than curing any single disease, be it cancer, heart disease, or diabetes. Aging is, in fact, the major risk factor that all these diseases have in common. For this reason, slowing aging becomes the most efficient path to a sustainable and healthy future for humanity.
To get this message out we started The Aging Science podcast. We will bring you interviews and frank conversations with leading experts in the field of longevity, as well as evidence-based health advice to support you on this journey.
This podcast is brought to you by VitaDAO and Kamil Pabis, MSc (the @Aging_Scientist on Twitter).
In this podcast, I (@aging_scientist) had the pleasure of interviewing Asst. Prof Alaattin Kaya (@akay_lab).
We talked about recent breakthroughs in the field, the difficulties of getting funding for risky and novel research, funding agencies, “fishing expeditions”, the importance of overexpression genetic screens in aging research, novel mechanisms of action, and the replication crisis.
