Past EVENT ROUNDUP

Science on the Brink

— John Battelle

The DOC magic returned to Sonoma. For three days, 300+ scientists, investors, entrepreneurs and policy leaders gathered around one shared commitment: evidence over hype. We debated the future of American healthcare, argued about peptides, and closed the night dancing to the DOC House Band. Serious science, real fun, no pretense.

The message from the stage was clear: longevity medicine stands on the brink of extraordinary advances, from precision psychiatry to gene editing to AI-powered care, the breakthroughs are real and accelerating. But when science outpaces understanding, hype rushes in, and it’s up to all of us to make sure science wins.
