The \"Youth vs. Old Age\" ideas competition, organised by the Scientific Senate of Dan Voiculescu Foundation for the Development of Romania, has ended. The contest was dedicated to Romanians concerned with anti-aging science, inspired by the revolutionary ideas presented in the book \"Lifespan: Why We Age \u2013 and Why We Don't Have To\", signed by the distinguished professor David Sinclair.<\/p>\n
During the competition, participants passionate about anti-aging science shared their innovative ideas to improve quality of life and delay the aging process. Through the competition, the Scientific Senate of Dan Voiculescu Foundation for the Development of Romania has succeeded in highlighting the continued importance of anti-aging research and innovation in a society where the population is ageing and the needs related to health and well-being are becoming more acute. The ideas collected as a result of the \"Youth vs. Old Age\" competition will have a significant impact on the Scientific Senate's efforts to find effective solutions to delay the ageing process and improve quality of life.<\/p>\n
A jury of leading scientific experts will now begin the process of evaluating all the proposals received in order to identify the most promising and innovative ideas that could make a significant contribution to anti-aging. The winner of the competition will be announced on 30 April and the \u20ac5,000 prize will be awarded in early May..<\/p>\n
In the book \"Lifespan: Why We Age - and Why We Don't Have To\", Dr David Sinclair demonstrates how we can slow or even reverse the ageing process. Experiments in genetic reprogramming, on one hand, and lifestyle changes (intermittent fasting, exposure to cold, exercising at the right intensity and eating less meat), on the other, help us live longer and healthier lives. In the near future we will not only be able to feel younger, we will actually be younger. David Sinclair proposes a bold scientific vision for the future of humanity and fundamentally changes the way we relate to old age. Combining cutting-edge science with fascinating pieces of history, sociology and morality, Dr David Sinclair convinces us that it's not just possible to live beyond 100, it's inevitable. The book is divided into three parts: what we know (the past), what we are discovering (the present) and where we are going (the future).<\/p>\n
Dr David Sinclair is professor of genetics at Harvard Medical School. He has been named by Time magazine as \"one of the top 100 most influential people in the world\" and one of the top 50 most influential health researchers. He is a member of the American Federation for Aging Research and has received numerous awards for his scientific achievements.<\/p>\n<\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Concursul de idei \u201eTinere\u021be vs. B\u0103tr\u00e2ne\u021be\u201d, organizat de Senatul \u0218tiin\u021bific al Funda\u021biei Dan Voiculescu pentru Dezvoltarea Rom\u00e2niei, s-a \u00eencheiat.
