Stem Cells Regeneration for Long Life - Dr Alessandro Prigion l Growth island l Ep. 114
Can you grow younger? For the ones who believe the answer is yes then stem cells are one of the most promising technologies.
Italian scientist Alessandro Prigion joins us for a wide-ranging conversation about the latest advances in stem cell research, mitochondrial donation, homosexual reproduction and more. We explore the implications of these cutting-edge bio technologies and ask whether we're on the cusp of a new era in human evolution.
Dr. Alessandro Prigion is also a professor of Pediatric Metabolic Medicine at the Medical Faculty of Heinrich Heine University in Dusseldorf, Germany and Editor-in-Chief of the journal Stem Cell Research (Elsevier). He’s the person you talk to when you need to learn anything about stem cells.
In this episode we discuss:
👉 What are stem cells
👉 The use cases of stem cells
👉 The ethical issues it poses
👉 The power of cell reprogramming
👉 Limitations of stem cells
👉 Understanding and strengthening your mitochondria
👉 And so much more…
If you're looking for a clear and concise breakdown of complex scientific concepts, look no further.
