Reprogramming Life: A Conversation on Longevity, Epigenetics, and the Future of Medicine

In this fireside chat, the panelists will explore the bold vision behind Life Biosciences and the rapidly advancing science of epigenetic reprogramming. From redefining aging as a reversible process to translating breakthrough research into the clinic, including the recently FDA-approved ER-100 trial. This conversation will unpack what it takes to turn longevity science into real-world therapies and discuss ways to slow biological aging. Join us for a forward-looking discussion at the intersection of biology, technology, and human healthspan.

From Cells to Patients: Solving the Scale Mismatch in Virtual Biology

Drug discovery often measures biology at the cell level while interventions work at the tissue, organ, or whole-patient scale. This mismatch can make accurate cell-level predictions irrelevant in the clinic. This session dives into strategies to bridge that gap: multiscale modeling that nests single-cell dynamics within organ-level simulations, spatial transcriptomics that preserve context, and surrogate models that translate cell-level outputs into clinical biomarkers. Speakers will ask: how do we ensure virtual biology reflects not just what cells do in isolation, but how biology behaves in the real complexity of patients?
