The actress, 54, spoke to the publication about her interest in medicine and innovations in technology and beauty, attributing it to her childhood with father John Aniston.
The veteran soap actor, best known for his starring turn in Days of Our Lives, passed away in November 2022 at the age of 89, and Jennifer revealed how a family move to Greece (the late Aniston was of Greek origin) when she was a child influenced her fascination with the intersection of beauty and science.
"I've always found it fascinating," she said. "There was a period when my dad went to medical school, when acting slowed down for him, which is why we moved to Greece when I was five or six. So I had a doctor/actor in the house who introduced me to the world of medicine and research."
She continued: "We would sit and watch medical programs during dinner. Even like micro surgeries – not what you would normally want to watch during suppertime.
