My guest today is Coleen T. Murphy, Professor of Molecular Biology at Princeton, and also the director of Princeton's Laboratory for Aging Research. Her new book is titled 'How We Age: The Science of Longevity.' We spoke about why women live longer than men, what centenarians seem to have in common with one another, why eunuchs may live longer than other men, and what a woman's fertility patterns tell us about her longevity.
In the extended version of the show, we also spoke about how new technology is pushing the boundaries of human longevity, including extending the female reproductive window. You can listen to the full extended episode at louiseperry.substack.com.
