When she was 8, Laura Deming realized that we were all going to die of
a disease called aging. Ever since, her driving passion has been to slow
down aging and eliminate age-related disease. She started working in a
biogerontology lab when she was 12, and enrolled at MIT when she was 14.
At 17, she was one of the youngest 20 under 20 fellows awarded $100,000 by
Peter Thiel to pursue her venture full time.
