Manage episode 375376936 series 3506087
The world's leading Rapamycin researcher Mikhail Blagosklonny has a long background in cancer research and one important discovery he made around 2000 was that Rapamycin slowed down senescent cancer cells in different ways. After that step by step his interest in the longevity field increased and he developed the very interesting hyperfunction theory of aging. He has made a huge contribution in moving the Rapamycin longevity field forward and his research papers have impacted many people. For example, the Rapamycin physician Alan Green who thanks to these papers took the decision in 2017 to start prescribing Rapamycin off label. Today Alan Green has the biggest clinical experience in the area with more than 1200 patients. A lot of other physicians have after that also taken these steps and one of those are for example physician Peter Attia.
