Innovation in human biology is evolving at breakneck speed. Artificial intelligence, data science and pharmaceutical discoveries - combined with a deeper understanding of how the body works at a cellular level - are creating exciting opportunities to extend health span.   Dr. Ron Alfa is Senior Vice President of Discovery &amp; Product at Recursion, a clinical-stage biotechnology company, recently named by Fast Company as one the World’s Most Innovative Companies for 2019. In this LLAMA podcast interview, with Peter Bowes, Dr, Alfa explains Recursion’s mission to create a map of human cellular biology and find novel treatment for the diseases of aging.Check out our home page at LLAMApodcast.com | Twitter: @llamapodcastThis interview was recorded at TEDMEDIn this interview we cover:How Recursion is using machine learning and computational biology to change the way drugs are getting to patients from the laboratory.Building tools to better understand the safety and efficacy of new molecules for use in the clinic. How drug discovery works and why it is such a long scientific process. How producing a vast amount of data is possible through advances algorithms and machine learning - and why it matters for our health. Is data generated using robotics accurate? How does this data differ from public data sets used widely in research? How Recursion is focussing on reversing cellular aging, or senescence. Defining aging. How import will artificial intelligence be as we move forward with the goal of a longer health span?Focussing on solutions that actually reach patients and allow physicians to make better decisions. FlexBeam red light therapyRecharge Health is offering LLAMA listeners an $80.00 discount on the purchase of FlexBeam, the wearable red light therapy device which targets key parts of the body to improve sleep, treat injuries and sooth aches and pains associated with aging.  Use code LLAMA at checkout- DoNotAgeDoNotAge.org is offering listeners to LLAMA a 10% discount on its range of products – NAD boosters, Sirtuin activators, senolytics and more.  Any health queries can be answered by emailing the team at hello@donotage.orgUse the code LLAMA at checkout. -Support the showThe Live Long and Master Aging (LLAMA) podcast, a HealthSpan Media LLC production, shares ideas but does not offer medical advice.
