"The Top Five Regrets of the Dying" by Bronnie Ware outlines what people most regret on their deathbed, namely: 1. Not following one’s dreams 2. Working too hard 3. Not expressing one’s feelings 4. Not keeping in touch with friends 5. Not letting oneself be happier

the longevity field is uniquely susceptible to damaging movements and narratives 'healthspan' was the worst of these in recent memory, but there is a new, perhaps even worse one on the rise - a form of AI zealotry which results in laziness and inaction due to an almost religious…

Excitement around life-extension and reversing aging is not new. This book on how science has discovered the "true fountain of youth" was published nearly 28 years ago. It turns out telomerase hasn't really panned out as an anti-aging therapy.

Join us at the world's premiere cryonics facility for our annual cryopreservation conference. Prepare for exclusive access to the European Biostasis Foundation, live field demonstrations, inspiring discussions, and exclusive membership opportunities with Tomorrow.bio.…

Can senolytics slow aging? Recent clinical trials and the largest mouse study of senolytics to date have failed to support this notion, raising questions regarding the future of senolytics as an anti-aging therapy. The latest @NatureBiotech 🚨 1/3 nature.com/articles/s4158…

🚨New paper on theories of ageing I discuss the major mechanistic theories of ageing in light of recent findings as well as the fundamental nature of the ageing process. Theoretical work is more important than ever in biology, including in ageing. nature.com/articles/s4155…

Cryopreservation: It's better than cremation.

Alexis de Tocqueville observed that "evils which are patiently endured when they seem inevitable become intolerable when once the idea of escape from them is suggested". Aging and death are still widely accepted, but if we have a breakthrough we can quickly change perceptions.

18 months to bring a rat back from the frozen abyss cryorat is true frontier science—a flagship project from @cryodao which will pave the way for reversible whole-organism cryopreservation today we're revealing the 2025-2026 plan to push cryo further than ever before 🧊🐀

Ray Kurzweil believes we will reach longevity escape velocity in 4 years. Believing in LEV or that AI will cure aging is a human instinct. It's a way to cope with the absurdity of life and the inevitability of death. It is like believing in God. Unfortunately it's not real...

Who did this?

"If I'm wrong, I'm happily wrong... I just take the pill that will be around in let's say 20 or 30 years—but I want to make damn sure that I'm not going to be 85 at some point dying of cancer and there's no good cryopreservation." - @emilkendziorra 🧊

A reminder that no matter how rich, powerful, famous or clever you are, life is too short. Let’s fix aging!

Australia's first cryonics facility has frozen its first patient in the hopes they might one day be able to be brought back to life. 🎥: 60Minutes

You’re cryopreserved in 2025 and wake up in 2500. What is the first thing you want to know?

The state of cryopreservation is fragile. To avoid a winter in the field, 3 challenges need to have meaningful progress in the next few years. 1. Can we develop better cryoprotectants? Current cryoprotectants are toxic, and we can't yet prove they preserve essential structure…
