Instant Genius is a bite-sized masterclass in podcast form. In this week’s episode, we talk to Dr Andrew Steele, computational biologist and author of Ageless: The New Science of Getting Older Without Getting Old (£9.99, Bloomsbury Publishing).
He explains what happens in our bodies as we get older, and why some species don’t seem to age at all.
