I’m calling this episode Taking Your Shot. It’s what my guest Tina Woods said about her motivation and determination when we first met nearly two years ago, right after she'd helped launch The All-Party Parliamentary Group for Longevity. She’s a serial social entrepreneur - founder and CEO of Longevity International, Collider Health and Collider Science. Writing a book wasn’t an ambition. But a publisher sought her out and, 30 interviews and 18 months later, 'Live Longer with AI' was off to the printers. And, imagine this, it was instantly picked up by the UK’s National Health Service, judged a must read for all staff. Every NHS worker is entitled to a free copy.We talk about the role of data, government, business and academia in a post-COVID world we hope pays more attention to reducing health and social inequality, get a progress report on the work of the APPG for Longevity, and hear how Tina's gone from taking her shot to taking her place as a leading figure in the healthy longevity arena. LinksTina's consultancy Collider HealthTina's other consultancy Collider ScienceLatest project Science Question TimeAPPG for Longevity's Open Life secures funding for longer, healthier lives - Feb 2021 article in Longevity TechnologyAPPG for Longevity's Business for HealthOur unhealthy nation - Dec 2020 piece in The Lancet by APPG for Longevity's chair Damian Green MP, co-founders  Lord Filkin and TinaBuy Tina's book Live Longer with AI: How artificial intelligence is helping us extend our healthspan and live better tooOkay, if you must, here tooTina Woods on TwitterSupport The Big MiddleSponsorDonate for a dedicationFollow The Big MiddleWebsite I Twitter I Facebook I InstagramHosted + produced by Susan FloryMusic: “Beautiful Day” by Sahin Koc
