🛠️ The replacement strategy says we don’t need to fix aging - just swap out the failing parts. A new Nature Aging paper makes this idea mainstream, framing organ and cell replacement as a serious, modular approach. We cover the paper in more detail in the LEVITY newsletter. Link ⬇️

🚀 We could be three years from a global war on aging. In this in-depth interview on the LEVITY podcast Aubrey de Grey explains how the experiments his LEV Foundation is conducting now could trigger a revolution in longevity research. 🙏 LEVITY is available on Youtube or where you listen to podcasts.

Tuesday January 14, 6 pm CET: Premiere of our LEVITY episode James Strole, co-founder of RAADfest and a true pioneer in longevity activism. Since 1968(!), he's been spreading the message of unlimited lifespans - way before it was cool.

”For now, however, it is less attractive as an investment proposition.” Yes, if you want more money. But how about we invest in getting more life, health and time instead?

Do not bank on living forever in this lifetime

If your crystal ball tells you that something is impossible, or that it will never happen in a million years, or that it’s wise to be a skeptic? Then you should return it and ask for your money back.

Two years ago, when my longevity book came out, Sweden’s biggest newspapers (and several other outlets) all wanted to write about this dude saying he wants to celebrate his 123rd birthday (in the year 2100). They thought it was such a headliney thing to say. This view will soon be completely normal.

I've been digging into Andrew Scott's paper and found an interesting table modeling a theoretical therapy applied once a year that regenerates either 1 year, 9 months, 6 months, or 3 months of aging at different ages (see table). 🧵

No matter your age, if you are in good health you most likely want to continue living. You have things to do. How many years that has passed since you were born is irrelevant.

”The problem is not that we have too many people, it will be that we have too few. And since [...] we have no policy that has been empirically shown to increase the total fertility rate [...] One solution to this problem is to just, have the current people staying alive longer.” - Linus Petersson

Types of aging paper

wear and tear is bad
the thing we measured is correlated with aging
so-called magic pill has no effect
longest lived mutant yet!
all previous aging theories are fatally flawed
this organelle holds the secret
this harmful thing is good at low dose
our underpowered study suggests this miracle diet slows aging
a long-lived critter does it differently
a multi-omics atlas of the epigenetic aging landscape
you must study the mortality plateau
it is all physics you fools!
