Dr. Steven Austad, professor of cellular and structural biology at UT Health Science Center – San Antonio, strongly believes science can substantially slow the aging process and nature holds the answer to longer, healthier, more productive lives. In fact, he bet a fellow researcher an estimated $500 million that the first 150-year-old person is already alive today. Each researcher invested $150 in a trust fund and the proceeds go to the winner in 2150. Austad hopes he’s here to collect.
