Lauren Goode: Hi, I'm Lauren Goode.
Gideon Lichfield: And I'm Gideon Lichfield. And this is Have a Nice Future, a show about how terrifyingly fast everything is changing.
Lauren Goode: Each week, we talk to someone with big, audacious, often unnerving ideas about the future, and we talk about how we can all prepare to live in it.
Gideon Lichfield: This week, our guest is Celine Halioua, the CEO of Loyal, a company that's working on finding drugs to extend lifespans.
Celine Halioua (audio clip): To me, it's extremely stressful that there's these whole hosts of diseases that if you are diagnosed with them, there's not anything anybody can do for you, and many of those are age related diseases.
