The End of Aging: An Evening with Aubrey de Grey
September 22, 2009 | 7:00 PM – 8:30 PM
At the New York Academy of Sciences

Could it be possible for humans to live hundreds of years in the very near future? Is aging a curable disease? Iconoclast Aubrey de Grey predicts it’s only a matter of decades before regenerative medicine extends human life expectancy indefinitely. This event is one of five events in the 2009 Provocative Thinkers Series presented by Science & the City, a program of the New York Academy of Sciences. Co-sponsored by the Singularity Institute.
