Spear’s 500 Live: Dr Angela Rai Discusses the Future of Longevity

Dr Angela Rai, General Practitioner and Medicines Management Lead at The London General Practice, is featured in this thought-provoking Spear’s 500 Live panel exploring the rapidly developing field of longevity medicine. Joining life sciences investor Jim Mellon, Professor Georgina Ellison Hughes and Riverstone CEO Duncan Garrard, Dr Rai offers expert insight into how people can improve their health span—not simply extend their lifespan.

The discussion examines why biological age may be more significant than chronological age, how advanced testing can reveal the pace at which an individual is ageing, and the emerging treatments being investigated to support cellular health. The panel also considers the importance of sustainable lifestyle habits, including nutrition, exercise, sleep and emotional wellbeing, alongside exciting developments in medical science.

Drawing on her experience in preventative and healthy ageing medicine, Dr Rai helps explain how personalised healthcare can empower people to take action earlier and make informed decisions about their long-term health. Her contribution highlights The London General Practice’s forward-thinking approach to proactive, evidence-based care.
