Silicon Valley has declared war on death

Because the future will be bright beyond all expectations
Humanity is moving very quickly towards a rosy future. A perfect world, even if perfection will never be fully achieved. Does this seem like an unreasonable prediction to you? Think that the alternative is self-destruction. Tertium non datur, and the dystopias of the various films are unlikely. One of the best films seen in recent years was Interstellar, but as much as I loved it, it has a weak point: it is set in a future that is not at all rosy.

Human Longevity inc. is the company founded by Craig Venter with an initial investment of over… Read more
In nanomachine towards the future
It's not the first and it won't be the last. Scientists from the University of Groningen (Holland) and the Empa research center (Switzerland) have created a nanometric transport system equipped with four motor units (translation: a “namomachine”). It's electric, four nanometers long and every half turn of the wheels has to fill up... It works thanks to a scanning tunneling microscope positioned above it, which transmits a tiny electric charge that causes reversible structural changes in the wheels (translation: … Read more
Lithium youth? Amazing new studies.
Professor Michael Ristow and his Japanese colleagues from the Universities of Oita and Hiroshima have demonstrated in two different tests that even low concentrations of Lithium lead to a considerable increase in longevity in humans as well as in other organisms (in this case a type of worm, Caenorhabditis elegans.): the research was published in the European Journal of Nutrition. Lithium is one of the nutritional elements present in vegetables and drinking water: "the scientific community does not yet know the ... Read more
