This guy, David Sinclair at Harvard, Marc T-L at Stanford ... disappointing but not entirely surprising that even in academia the spoils go to the scammers.

- iknowstuff 2y agoWhat’s up with Sinclair? Saw his name pop up in a multitude of aging/longevity content on youtube and my spidey senses were tingling.
- chrispeel 2y agoI couldn't finish Sinclair's book on aging [1]; even in a book that he co-authored he comes across as a scammer [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifespan:_Why_We_Age_%E2%80%93_and_Why_We_Don%27t_Have_To https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifespan:_Why_We_Age_%E2%80%93...

- thyrox 2y agoI have been seeing this guy David Sinclair a lot in my Youtube feed lately with raving reviews. But after reading your comment did a bit of research and my god what a scam(1). There is so much misinformation and gaming going on in every industry and with A.I. generated content it's going to get so much easier.
