A few months ago, some 160 scientists across physics, biology, and medicine met in Singapore for the first ever global conference on the physics of aging, or gerophysics. These are people that come from physics, engineering, and mathematics, who share a fundamental language of mathematical modeling and physics thinking and are applying it to aging biology. There are a few areas where physics has surprising things to say about aging: maximum lifespan and stable versus unstable lifespan. This has to be figured out, and this has to move into biology and aging biology. What we’re trying to build is like a CERN for aging biology, a biomedical mega-project that focuses on aging biology, and especially on the things that nature already figured out.
