291 | Venki Ramakrishnan on the Biology of Death and Aging
Venki Ramakrishnan
When you're alive, a lot of you is dying. When you're dead, most of you is still alive. So what does this mean? It means that we can no longer function coherently as a whole individual. And we worry about it because we are aware of ourselves as an individual. We have consciousness. But you can imagine species that don't have consciousness.
