Methuselah Foundation chair Aubrey de Grey was recently interviewed for an episode of the Discovery Channel series NextWorld, which begins airing in the US on Wednesday, August 6th. The episode that covers the path forward for longevity science will air later in the series, but a shorter version of the interview will be included in the first episode, called Future Life on Earth.

From the series description: “NextWorld explores some of the most amazing technologies, science, ideas and trends that we will encounter over the next 20 years. From cities that float to functional exoskeletons, digital contact lenses to pills that promise to greatly extend our lifespans – the stories speak to some of the amazing things happening in the world of science thanks to what we refer to as the ‘technology avalanche’ now occurring.”
