Our vitalist / longevity special with @realNathanCheng and @adamgries is out now on The Beyond Tomorrow Podcast

Tens of millions live with permanent disability after brain injuries such as stroke, disease, or aging. Current therapies help people cope but cannot restore lost brain function. The BRAINS Exploratory Topic aims to advance regenerative neuroscience by engineering graftable precursor tissues and testing their integration into adult brains. Now accepting proposals from bold, interdisciplinary teams. arpa-h.gov/explore-funding/i…

>"... we're recruiting for LBF8 so if you know any talented people who might want to work on solving aging & don't want to die...." the absurdity of it all -- needing to FIND people who don't want to die. it may surprise you, but the vast majority of people want to die.

my next article: "The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Organ Replacement via Brainless Cloning in conjunction with Progressive Brain Tissue Replacement to Solve Aging"

Over the past few months, I've been collaborating with @socialcapital (@chamath's investment vehicle) on a two-part deep dive into the current state of Longevity Biotech and Aging Research. This deep dive aims to be a solid introduction to the field. It assumes no background in biology, medicine, or biotech. If you've been wondering what science knows about aging, what makes us believe aging can be slowed or reversed, or which companies are making real progress toward developing therapies against aging, this is for you! Part 1 is out now. It's a foundation for understanding the biology of aging and the current state of longevity biotech. Part 2 follows shortly, covering the strategies researchers, companies, and investors are pursuing to slow or reverse aging. Thank you, @chamath and @socialcapital team, for the opportunity to work with you on it. And thank you to all contributors who helped to make this deep dive objective and engaging, and who are making anti-aging interventions a reality: @Andrei_Tarkhov, @elimohamad, @fedichev, @KarlPfleger, @MarkHamalainen, @MartinBJensen, @MaxUnfried, @mkaeberlein, @omri_drory, @RaianyRomanni, @realnathancheng, @sebastiangiwa, @shappiron, @shoylev, @statto, @strygah, @ydeigin If any errors are to be found in this deep dive, I own them.

Over 100,000 people per day die due to ageing. 13,000 children die per day of largely preventable causes. I spend most of my time banging on about longevity science, but it’s also very important not to forget the tragic and avoidable deaths in early life.
