Teachers' Domain Video:
In this video segment adapted from //NOVA scienceNOW//, scientists discuss a family of genes called FOXO that can significantly extend life span in worms—and in humans.

(I had trouble uploading the video the way I wanted to. Hopefully this works!)

I had a hard time finding a downloadable video that I would use in a lesson. This was the most relevant one I could find for my lesson on dystopias. Slowing or eliminating the aging process is a recurring idea in dystopian literature and other visions of //the future//. I might use this video to get students thinking about this issue and the repercussions of extending human life. It is also a good example of how some authors' predictions / warnings about the future have come to pass. I would probably have students do a quick free-write on the subject, then watch the clip. After viewing, students would write some more, then discuss in small groups, discuss as a class, and, finally, respond to some kind of synthesis question, perhaps linking the video to a class text.
