I was going to make some awful joke about Peter Thiel wanting to drink her blood, but she kind of gets there first (sans Thiel references) in her final answer:

While scientifically interesting, I think they get a little over-discussed in the press because of that vampiricism. It’s not as sexy to talk about new genetic regulatory elements that control the aging process. That’s not going to get as many clicks as a story about drinking the blood of your five-year-old.
