- Aging is actively controlled by genes. All animals, and possibly humans, too, seem to have the potential to live much longer than they normally do. Cynthia Kenyon, PhD, explores the mechanisms by which the rate of aging can be slowed down. Kenyon is distinguished professor of Biochemistry and Biophysics, American Cancer Society Research Professor and director of the Hillblom Center for the Biology of Aging at the University of California, San Francisco.
This lecture was part of the Silverstein Lecture Series, an educational event hosted by Northwestern University's Center for Genetic Medicine.
