Dr. Aubrey de Grey, a biomedical gerontologist, is one of the leading figures in global aging research and a strong advocate in all aspects of the field, from research, investment, to supporting public policy regarding aging. His provocative view that medical technology will one day enable humans to control the aging process and live healthily into our hundreds or longer, is becoming less radical these days. Today, both the academic and private sectors are racing to tackle aging, helping the longevity sector to become one of the most attractive areas to invest in.
