XPRIZE exec director Dr Jamie Justice on how the $101m competition can deliver a lasting legacy to the longevity field.
Throughout my career, I’ve been trying to test interventions going from preclinical to clinical translation – small proof of concepts, senolytics, dietary lifestyle interventions and so on. This is my stomping ground – this is what I do. And I know the heartbreak and the barriers all too well – eight years on, and there’s still no TAME trial in the field.
