Professor Gordon Slater has spent more than three decades in medicine and surgery. A Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons in orthopaedics since 1997 and Professor at the University of Technology Sydney, he has published over fifty research papers and holds multiple patents for medical devices. He is the founder of Integrant Pty Ltd. His work sits at the junction of clinical practice and regenerative science — which is the vantage point this book is written from.


Why he wrote this book

Three decades of operating gives you a particular view of the body: you see, directly and repeatedly, what tissue does when it is damaged and what it does when it repairs. That vantage point is unusual among people writing about longevity, and it is the one this book is written from.

Speaking and media

Professor Slater considers selected speaking engagements, interviews and commentary on regenerative medicine, longevity science and surgical innovation.
