New “Key-Hole Surgery” Technique to Extract Metals From the Earth – Could Revolutionize the Future of Mining

A team of international researchers, including Dr. Rich Crane from the Camborne School of Mines, University of Exeter, have developed a new method to extract metals, such as copper, from their parent ore body.

The research team has provided a proof of concept for the application of an electric field to control the movement of an acid within a low permeability copper-bearing ore deposit to selectively dissolve and recover the metal in situ.

This is in contrast to the conventional approach for the mining of such deposits where the material must be physically excavated, which requires removal of both overburden and any impurities within the ore (known as gangue material).

My Theory & The Future Of Aging | Prof George Church Interview Series Episode 1

7:01 they talk about Church’s comments of ending aging by 2030. Also this appears to be a part one.


In this video Professor Church talks about his theory of aging and touches on his ideas on the future of aging.

George Church is the Robert Winthrop Professor of Genetics at Harvard Medical School, a Professor of Health Sciences and Technology at Harvard and MIT. Professor Church helped initiate the Human Genome Project in 1984 and the Personal Genome Project in 2005. He is widely recognized for his innovative contributions to genomic science and his many pioneering contributions to chemistry and biomedicine. He has co-authored 580 paper, 143 patent publications & the book “Regenesis”.

María Blasco sobre retrasar el envejecimiento y extender la vida (with S/T in English)

Excerpts from an interview with Dr. María Blasco, Director of the Spanish National Cancer Research Center (CNIO), where she covers how telomeres shortening induce aging, how artificially lenghtening telomeres has proven to extend lifespan in animal models like mice, and what the impact will be in human health and lifespan once the techniques (gene therapies) get effectively translated into humans.

The interview took place on May 6, 2021 as part of a program organized by the Madrid Planetarium, to contribute to a better orientation of the students of the last years of high school when deciding which university studies further engage.

The language used is not intended for an audience of scientists but rather accessible to all audiences.

The entire interview was made in Spanish but I ADDED S/T in ENGLISH FOR THE EXCERPTS SHOWN in this video.

In the description is the link to the entire interview which as I said was made in Spanish.


New technique can print life-like organ models in minutes

I still don’t get how there seems to be No organized effort anywhere to achieve the ability to 3D print a perfect genetic match of all organs by 2025 — 2030. You would think some government somewhere would want to work round the clock on this.


NIBIB-funded engineers at the University of Buffalo have fine-tuned the use of stereolithography for 3D printing of organ models that contain live cells. The new technique is capable of printing the models 10–50 times faster than the industry standard-;in minutes instead of hours-; a major step in the quest to create 3D-printed replacement organs.

Conventional 3D printing involves the meticulous addition of material to the 3D model with a small needle that produces fine detail but is extremely slow —taking six or seven hours to print a model of a human part, such as a hand, for instance. The lengthy process causes cellular stress and injury inhibiting the ability to seed the tissues with live, functioning cells.

The method developed by the SUNY Buffalo group, led by Rougang Zhao, PhD, Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering in the Jacobs School of Medicine & Biomedical Sciences, takes a different approach that minimizes damage to live cells. The rapid, cell friendly technique is a significant step towards creating printed tissues infused with large numbers of living cells.

Omitting natural disasters like an asteroid smashing Earth or a volcano eruption we can say that improving human health and condition is the most important safety case/concern and the fundamental thing to consider and accomplish on our way to be super cosmic humanity. Significant health improvements will free us from all diseases, allow us to develop superhuman intelligence, let us totally self-realize, and consequently, help realize the infinity in the matter for the common good. However intensively we focus on intelligence, it is not possible to experience its natural consequence or the next level of its advancement/evolution if there is no good health. Coherent and consistent collective mind continuum experience is not possible without super health (Healthy life that is free from the danger of uncontrollable death). Our bodies are short-timed and not strong enough to hold up the Earth-Gravity-Geometry sized/adjusted thoughts that are necessary to naturally manage and effectively inhabit our planet.

Our lives often seem to be episodic where the memories and thoughts get lost — one might say that this is the matter of learning and perfecting the mind but this is as far from the truth as big is the number of people who struggle with having a comprehensive perspective, not because of the lack of will to do so but because of the lack of comfort of having good health and life conditions. The comfort of the living space we got ourselves on the planet after the ages of technological developments and evolution is not a direct effect of our intelligence — The main factor for human intelligence is common health. Weak wiring of the nervous system makes it difficult to communicate progress, and therefore, build with the big human intelligence. We need to constructively adjust our metabolic paths, understand and fix our cells, learn to touch and manipulate our DNA, improve internal signaling, and get super healthy if we want to use real great human intelligence to build a wonderful future. The house we can create on the fundaments of super long healthspans will be the first of its kind and magnitude — I hope to give a good vision of the new world in order to get the good motivation to proceed in life and actually get there.

Inspiration4: The first all-civilian spaceflight on SpaceX Dragon

Jared Isaacman’s privately funded trip to Earth’s orbit will raise money for St. Jude’s.


Inspiration4 will be motivated in part by Isaacman’s effort to raise more than $200 million for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, a pediatric cancer research hospital that does not charge the families of children for their treatment. Isaacman pledged $100 million out of his own pocket.

“I’ve been very lucky in life; you really don’t get to a position that I’m fortunate enough to be in without the ball bouncing your way a couple times,” said Isaacman in an interview with Space.com. “These families [at St. Jude] were dealt horrible hands. They’re going through what no one should ever have to go through. It’s immense heartache, and the sad part is many of those kids will not grow up to have any of the experiences that I’ve been lucky enough to have in life. We’ve just got to do something about that.”

Microwave Processing Isolates Red Ginseng Compounds That Suppress Lung Cancer Metastasis

Most deaths associated with lung cancer are due to the migration of cancer cells to other organs—a process called metastasis. Although cancer therapies have advanced, treatments for lung cancer metastasis continue to lag.

The root of red ginseng (Panax ginseng) has been used as food and herbal medicine for thousands of years globally and especially in Korea and China, owing to its medicinal properties. However, the composition and activities of red ginseng vary depending on the processing method. Recent studies have shown the efficacy of red ginseng against lung cancer metastasis.

A new study conducted by scientists at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) reports the successful use of a microwave processing method for ginseng that increases trace amounts of Rk1 and Rg5 ginsenosides—a class of natural steroid sugars found almost exclusively in plants of the genus Panax —that effectively inhibit the metastasis of lung cancer.
