Ground Truths · Katie Couric and Eric Topol: On the State of US Life Science and Extending Healthspan · 12 Jun 2025 podcast

Yeah, so someday, Katie, we'll be doing our retina selfies and then having AI analyze it and giving us... Now, you're bringing up, well, you don't want to know if there's not a way to prevent, but we do have ways to prevent, particularly Alzheimer's, but also...

the heart and the cancer diagnosis.

So, and we're gonna just keep getting better.

That's what's really, so for people who are young now to know in advance, they're gonna be having a great opportunity to truly prevent.

This is one thing to emphasize that all these years, we're talking about millennia that medicine's talked about primary prevention of major age-related diseases.

We've never done it before.

But we actually can't do that now.

Yeah, it's a great question.

So there's a few reasons why we're seeing this longevity moment right now.

There's never been more intense interest.

One is that we have had

big investments in science and biotech to reverse aging.

And this is a lot of billionaires who, when they were young, they wanted to be rich.

And now that they're rich, they want to be young.

And they put lots of resources into these companies.

And some of them are doing really elegant science.

And

We can say that you can make a mouse or a rat that's old make it truly young.

I mean, yeah, it's extraordinary, but we're not at any data in people, right?

So that's one area that's really been moving quickly, and maybe someday we will have a way to reverse aging, but right now we don't.
