‪Aubrey de Grey With Dr Krystal at Embiggen Books‬



Aubrey de Grey

The Rational Future

Posted: Aug 8, 2012


The Aubrey de Grey @Embiggen Books was a pre-Humanity+ @Melbourne activity. The place was packed out and we got very good feedback.

Aubrey talks about the concept of what aging is, the concept of Longevity Escape Velocity, his book “Ending Aging”, accumulated damage, preventative geriatrics, what will the first generation therapies look like?, stem cell therapies, telomeres, telomerase and cancer, over-population of cells (immune system filling with cells not doing what they are supposed to do), mitochondrial mutations etc.
