We sit down with José Cordeiro, author of The Death of Death, to uncover the timeline scientists believe could end aging — and even achieve immortality. From the promise of longevity escape velocity by 2030 to Ray Kurzweil’s bold prediction of immortality by 2045, José reveals the breakthroughs, roadblocks, and revolutionary ideas shaping the future of human life.

Aging is a primary risk factor for multi-morbidity and declining quality of life. The geroscience hypothesis states that targeting biological aging mechanisms may prevent or delay morbidity; however, translating theory into practice remains challenging. Unknown long-term risks and a lack of well-validated, responsive, and practical surrogate endpoints especially hinder the field’s preventive aspirations. This review addresses these obstacles by introducing the regeneration model of aging—a novel framework that integrates biological aging processes and distills the complexity of aging into a series of fundamental steps. The model provides insights into potential trade-offs of anti-aging interventions and can guide strategies to slow aging across diverse populations.
Hematopoietic aging extends far beyond the confines of the bone marrow, functioning as a central regulator of systemic decline through its influence on inflammation, immune dysregulation, and inter-organ communication. Moreover, reciprocal signaling from peripheral organs, such as the brain and gut, further shapes hematopoietic aging, highlighting the bidirectional nature of these interactions (Figure 3).
Engineers have created a device that generates incredibly tiny, earthquake-like vibrations on a microchip—and it could transform future electronics. Using a new kind of “phonon laser,” the team can produce ultra-fast surface waves that already play a hidden role in smartphones, GPS systems, and wireless tech. Unlike today’s bulky setups, this single-chip device could deliver far higher performance using less power, opening the door to smaller, faster, and more efficient phones and wireless devices.
The agency also says studies show microgravity affects the development of bone marrow cells.
And while astronauts on the Space Station are shielded from much of the cosmic and solar radiation by the Earth’s magnetosphere, the Artemis II crew will fly beyond our planet’s protective layer.
Artemis II astronauts donate platelets that contain cells with a portion of stem and progenitor cells from their bone marrow.
Scientists have demonstrated a new method that could allow quantum information to be safely backed up, overcoming one of the longest-standing limitations in quantum computing without violating the fundamental laws that govern quantum systems.
The research describes a way to encode the information contained in a qubit across multiple entangled systems, allowing the original quantum state to be recovered later without directly copying it.
The drill site looked like a tiny scar on an endless white sheet. Floodlights threw sharp cones of yellow on the snow while the rest of Antarctica stayed blue and silent, as if the continent itself was holding its breath. The wind slapped the tents, the generators coughed, and a handful of scientists stood around
In controlled experiments, engineers have shown that electricity can be transmitted through the air using highly controlled electromagnetic fields and resonant coupling techniques, conceptually similar to the way data is sent via Wi-Fi but tailored for energy transfer.
These approaches build on decades of research into magnetic resonance and inductive power transfer, which seek to send energy efficiently across short distances without physical contact between transmitter and receiver…
…Past research from the university demonstrated that magnetic loop antennas can transfer power wirelessly at relatively high efficiency over short ranges, offering insights into how to optimize coupling and reduce energy losses.
More recent demonstrations reported in global tech news describe Finnish teams successfully powering small devices through the air using wireless power transfer methods.
Finland continues to make progress in the field of wireless electricity transmission, an area of research that aims to send power through the air without the use of traditional cables or plugs.
Recent demonstrations and experiments by Finnish researchers have highlighted steady advancements in technology that could one day reshape how devices are powered, though widespread commercial deployment remains distant.
