What Regeneration Teaches Us About Aging

William Lowry joins Targeting Longevity 2026 to rethink stem cell metabolism and aging

We are pleased to welcome Professor William Lowry (University of California, Los Angeles) as a speaker at Targeting Longevity 2026.

His work sits exactly at the crossroads of what Targeting Longevity aims to highlight: how metabolic and mitochondrial regulation shapes stem cell behavior, tissue maintenance, and regenerative capacity over time. By studying skin and hair, his research provides more than model systems it offers readable, accessible windows into systemic aging processes, where regeneration, metabolism, and time intersect.

At the meeting, Professor Lowry’s contribution will go beyond presenting scientific findings. We have invited him to share his perspective and vision on where the field of stem cell metabolism and aging is heading, what the key strategic opportunities and limits may be in the coming years, and how this biology could realistically translate into longevity-oriented interventions.

In line with the spirit of Targeting Longevity, his talk will emphasize dialogue over lectures, focusing not only on what we know today, but on where the field should go, and how regenerative biology can inform a more coherent and realistic approach to longevity.
