David M. Sabatini

Okay, so the next speaker is David Sabatini.

David doesn't really need any introduction to the MIT participants here.

I think that basically David's name is kind of synonymous with mTOR because when he was a graduate student with Saul Snyder, he first identified mTOR as the target of rapamycin and since then has really done, you know, really unbelievably beautiful work and been highly productive.

We talked about this case when it occurred.

David Sabatini is an MIT scientist who formerly held positions at the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research, the Howard Hughes Medical Institution, and MIT.

He'd been on track to win a Nobel Prize.

So this is a guy top of his field.

In humans, we can't do any of this.

We don't have what David Sabatini described.

refers to as an mTOR integrator, a signal integrator.

So the sort of the way that hemoglobin A1c is an integrating function of average glucose, right? It integrates glucose level over the previous three months, roughly.

This was a hoax that was carried out at MIT, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, really the highest... highest level of academia in America, allegedly, right? Well, you had one professor against another, and one of the professors ran the other one out of his life, out of his entire life.

This is one of the, one of the, this is one of the biggest names in aging and cancer research uh in america this guy he's run out all right his name is david sabatini he's run out by a woman named kristen uh nows and she this this is just uh me too hoaxer is from colonel kurtz uh kristen nows is confronted with her own crude text to david sabatini she's claiming that he pressured her into having a sexual relationship how do you pressure somebody into voluntarily pulling their clothes off I mean, all you got to do is simply say to the guy, I'm not interested.

That's it.

Not interested.
