Eric Topol's Ground Truths podcast released a 76-minute conversation with Vadim Gladyshev, Harvard Medical School professor and NAS member, with an open-access transcript and links to his recent papers. Topics span the nature of aging, biological age clocks (proteomic organ clocks, transcriptomic clocks, the multimodal mAge clock with wearables, facial and metabolomic clocks), old-to-young heart transplant and rejuvenation studies, mouse parabiosis, anti-fibrotic drugs and semaglutide across 5 randomized trials measured by organ proteomic clocks, and the role of AI in aging biology.
