What are potential applications to increase the Lifespan? And when will those innovations hit the market?In this episode, I had a conversation in December 2021  with Prof. Collin Ewald, ETH Zürich, about his longevity research and the future impact on the pharma industry.In this episode, we talk about:

  •  What is the role of the extracellular matrix during aging and longevity?
