Ageing is one of the most complex and mysterious processes in biology, but modern science is helping us to finally understand what drives it and, maybe, how we could do something about it. This talk will look at the biological changes that drive ageing, resulting in everything from wrinkles and grey hair to increased risk of cancer.
