March 9 (UPI) — Scientists have developed a technique for repairing damaged DNA. The breakthrough, published this week in the journal Nature Communications, could pave the way for new therapies for cancer and neurodegenerative disorders.

The accumulation of DNA damage is responsible for aging, cancer and neurological diseases like motor neuron disease, also known as ALS.

Until now, scientists have struggled to find ways to repair this kind of damage. However, researchers have discovered a new protein called TEX264 that can combine with other enzymes to find and destroy toxic proteins that bind to DNA and trigger damage.

Hi everyone, thanks for the add. Good to be part of the group. I’ve recently done a video exploring the spiritual implications of radical life extension — which may interest some of you.

Spirituality & Life Extension. In this video I explore modern life and spirituality, in the light of radical life extension, i.e slowing ageing, enhancing longevity, and what that might mean for us in terms of spirituality and well-being. Do you you would continue to be spiritual if you had another healthy century ahead of you?

Scientists who study the biology of Aging agreed that we would someday be able to slow down the aging process substantially.

Dr. Aubrey de Grey, Chief Science Officer at SENS Research Foundation and VP of New Technology Discovery at AgeX Therapeutics believes that the critical biomedical technology required to eliminate aging derived debilitation and death is now within reach.

In his book “Ending Aging” he and his research assistant Michael Rae described the details of this biotechnology. They explained that the Aging of the human body, just like the Aging of manmade machines, results from an accumulation of various types of damage. As with manmade machines, this damage can periodically be repaired, leading to the indefinite extension of the machines fully functional lifetime just as is routinely done with classic cars.

We will be issuing ticket refunds to attendees, who cannot attend the new date.

Berlin / Mountain View, March 12, 2020.

Forever Healthy Foundation and SENS Research Foundation have decided to reschedule Undoing Aging 2020 to October, 21–23. Following the WHO’s declaration of COVID-19 as a pandemic, we will do our share to prevent it from spreading further. We will be issuing ticket refunds to attendees, who cannot attend the new date.

The Undoing Aging Conference in October will be focused on the cellular and molecular repair of age-related damage as the basis of therapies to bring aging under full medical control and will bring together scientists and startups from around the globe, all pioneers in their respective fields, who are leading the charge in maintaining and restoring full health in old age.
