Dr. Steven Austad is a professor in the Healthy Aging department at the University of Alabama and also scientific director of the American Federation for Aging research. He has a fascinating entry into the world of aging research - it all began with training lions!

There are many open questions on the caloric restriction research for enhancing longevity and we dive into that. Further, a lot of Dr. Austad’s work focuses on what long-lived animal species can teach us about living longer and healthier lives. His lab works on exotic species, like clams that live more than 500 years, and hydra that don’t age at all, in order to discover aging treatments. He also tries to uncover the mysteries around why men and women respond differently to longevity therapeutics.
