Podcast Special Edition: Highlights of The 2019 Undoing Aging Conference

“A gracefull and honorable old age is the childhood of immortality.”–Pindar 

 

The returns are in.  The 2019 Undoing Aging conference, held in Berlin, March 28-30,  was a smash hit.  500 attendees (a sellout) heard the latest on dozens of lines of research to slow, stop, or reverse the ravages of aging.  At 68,  I can only hope that the progress accelerates.   In this podcast special edition, we;ll hear, once again, from Aubrey de Grey, as well as Nir Barzilai (Albert Einstein College of Medicine), Vadim Gladyshev (Harvard University) and José Cordeiro (author of La Muerte de la Muerte, and candidate for the European parliament).

But as science progresses,  we need to be looking ahead to the societal implications of radically extended life span.  To that end, I’ll be attending The Future of Longevity Impact Roadmap workshop at the headquarters of the XPrize in Culver City, CA later this month

Podcast #29: Sustainable Superabundance with David Wood

“Sustainability is no longer about doing less harm.  It’s about doing more good.” ―Jochen Zeitz

 

Click for Amazon link.

In January of 2017 the first two episodes of Seeking Delphi™ featured David Wood, chair of the London Futurists, on his book The Abolition of Aging.  Wood’s newest effort, Sustainable Superabundance: A Universal Transhumanist Invitation, is an apt follow-up.  It deals with the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead; it maps out his preferred scenarios for a better world, while warning about the dangers of making a worse one.  David joins me in this episode for a discussion of some the key ideas in his new book.

Podcast Special Edition: Previewing The 2019 Undoing Aging Conference

“I think science has begun to demonstrate that aging is a disease. If it is, it can be cured.” 
― Tom Robbins

 

Being in the category that society generally classifies as “old people,” I’m not sure whether to laugh or cry when I look at the cartoon to the left.  But if the science progresses fast enough, and I live long enough, maybe I’ll see the day when I can just ignore it.  As the increasingly global movement to reverse human aging gains momentum, we might see the day when everyone works like they are in their 20’s, no matter how old they are.  In this special edition podcast Aubrey de Grey returns to Seeking Delphi™ to preview the 2019 Undoing Aging conference, to be held in Berlin, Germany, March 28-30.  Aubrey previously was on Seeking Delphi™ in December of 2017, episode #19. 

I’ll be attending the conference, look for me if you go.
