  वेंकी रामाकृष्णन: लंबी उम्र जीने का विज्ञान और उसका हाइप (Hindi version) 24.07.2026 47min

  हम वाकई कितने करीब हैं हमेशा के लिए जीने के? लॉन्जेविटी (लंबी उम्र) आज दुनिया के सबसे चर्चित विषयों में से एक बन गया है—इसमें भारी निवेश हो रहा है और ज़्यादा जीने के तरीकों को लेकर राय की कोई कमी नहीं। विज्ञान को हाइप से अलग करने के लिए निकोलाई टैंगन बात करते हैं सर वेंकी रामाकृष्णन से—रसायन विज्ञान के नोबेल पुरस्कार विजेता, रॉयल सोसाइटी के पूर्व अध्यक्ष, और Why We Die के लेखक। दोनों समझते हैं कि बुढ़ापा असल में है क्या, क्यों इंसान की अधिकतम उम्र में मुश्किल से ही कोई बदलाव आया है, सेल्युलर रिप्रोग्रामिंग की संभावनाएं और उसकी सीमाएं, और लंबी उम्र वाले समाज से जुड़े नैतिक सवाल। वेंकी उन आसान आदतों के बारे में भी बताते हैं जो सबसे ज़्यादा मायने रखती हैं: नींद, संयम और व्यायाम। जीवन, मृत्यु और उनके बीच की हर बात पर एक साफ़-नज़रिए वाली बातचीत के लिए ज़रूर सुनें!——Venki Ramakrishnan: The Science and Hype of Living Longer How close are we, really, to living forever? Longevity has become one of the hottest topics in the world, drawing huge investment and endless opinions about how to live longer. To separate science from hype, Nicolai Tangen turns to Sir Venki Ramakrishnan, Nobel laureate in chemistry, former President of the Royal Society, and author of Why We Die. They unpack what ageing actually is, why the maximum human lifespan has hardly moved, the promise and limits of cellular reprogramming, and the ethics of a longer-living society. Venki also shares the simple habits that matter most: sleep, moderation, and exercise. Tune in for a clear-eyed conversation on life, death, and everything in between! Hosted on Acast.
