There were claims during the pandemic that natural immunity was not as strong as vaccinated COVID immunity. Those claims have been proven to be completely wrong by scientific studies. Natural immunity that comes from actual COVID infection is many times stronger then vaccinated immune response. Marty Makary is a professor at the Johns Hopkins School …
Aubrey de Grey reports on the large mouse study of combination antiaging treatments. The survival curves are definitely approaching the stage where we can draw tentative conclusions concerning average lifespan. What we won’t be able to do for a good six months yet, probably more like nine months, is speculate even tentatively about maximum lifespan, …
Endiatx PillBot™ and future Endiatx products will be true telemedicine. They will dramatically increase access to care while simultaneously lowering costs and increasing doctors’ effectiveness. Problem Many of the 11,000 in the US and 800,000 globally who die from stomach cancer each year are diagnosed too late for doctors to save their lives. They don’t …
Using gut microbiota transplants, an international team of researchers has shown memory impairments in humans with Alzheimer’s can be passed on to young, healthy rats. This confirms that gut bacteria are involved in causing Alzheimers. Specific bacteria in the gut are directly linked to cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s patients. Gut microbiota actually play a causal …
Marc Lowell Andreessen is the co-author of Mosaic, the first widely used web browser with a graphical user interface, co-founder of Netscape, co-founder and general partner of Silicon Valley venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz. He co-founded and later sold the software company Opsware to Hewlett-Packard. Andreessen is also a co-founder of Ning, a company that …
Is radical lifespan extension foreseeable? No one can answer that question with certainty. But there are certainly enough tantalizing clues suggesting that aging is sufficiently malleable to warrant the allocation of very substantial resources. Support the message of the Declaration to add your signature, using the form below, and to urge others to do the …
There is clear evidence for the rejuvenation of specific biological functions is now available in model organisms for a growing range of treatments. Achieving full medical control of aging, however, will certainly require the use of not just one, but an arsenal of longevity therapies. Aubrey de Grey explained how the Robust Mouse Rejuvenation program …
Oisin Biotechnologies has been able to safely apply gene therapies in humans to remove senescent cells. They were able to identify the bad cells and then applied a therapy to cause those cells to self-destruct. New Oisin Biotechnologies therapies will remove all visceral fat. Visceral fat is a type of body fat that lies deep …
Harvard’s George Church has been involved in starting many successful biotech companies. In 1984, he developed the first direct genomic sequencing method, which resulted in the first genome sequence (the human pathogen, H. pylori). He helped initiate the Human Genome Project in 1984 and the Personal Genome Project in 2005. George invented the broadly applied …
An Israeli team have made the first complete embryo model that mimics all the key structures that emerge in the early embryo. Instead of a sperm and egg, the starting material was naive stem cells which were reprogrammed to gain the potential to become any type of tissue in the body. Chemicals were then used …
Researchers at the University of Rochester have successfully transferred a longevity gene from naked mole rats to mice, resulting in improved health and an extension of the mouse’s lifespan. Mole rats can live ten times longer than mice . Naked mole rats, known for their long lifespans and exceptional resistance to age-related diseases, have long …
