Unlimited Bio COO Vladimir Leshko Explores the Intersection of Space and Longevity at “Health from Space” Conference
For Unlimited Bio COO Vladimir Leshko, space represents the next great frontier — one that may soon converge with the quest for longevity. Speaking at the Health from Space Conference organized by Paul Kamoun, PhD, Vladimir joined the Regulatory Panel to discuss how regulatory sandboxes like Próspera ZEDE enable biotech companies such as Unlimited Bio to innovate faster and safer.
Highlights from the Conference
Regulatory Sandboxes. Vladimir showcased how flexible frameworks, like those in Próspera (Honduras), empower companies such as Unlimited Bio to accelerate clinical validation of cutting-edge therapies.
Longevity in Space. He proposed the use of gene therapies to prepare humans for long-duration space missions, mitigating muscle loss and bone density decline — two of the biggest biological challenges of space travel.
Inspiration and Collaboration. The event featured thought leaders like Ruben Figueres, who presented “Longevity Hackers” (featuring Tony Robbins, Nir Barzilai, Matt Kaeberlein, Bryan Johnson, and Liz Parrish) at the Cannes Film Festival venue.
Space Biotech Momentum. Leshko highlighted innovations from Joseph “Sci” Borg, Yossi Yamin, Luis Zea, and others exploring pharma and stem-cell production in space.
Scientific Curiosities. Citing Daniela Bezdan’s findings, he noted that space exposure may extend telomeres, even though radiation and gravity loss severely harm muscles and bones — further supporting the case for genetic countermeasures.
