Could Mushroom Packaging Replace Styrofoam?
Posted by Shailesh Prasad in category: biotech/medical
A biotech company in upstate New York designs products made from the root structures of mushrooms. It takes about a week to grow their alternative to styrofoam packaging. And their vegan meat can be sliced into whole cuts and crisps up like bacon when fried.

varying in age between 18 and 88, only 33% of them said they would be willing to take a pill that allowed them to stay alive at their current age.
If you were asked to participate in this survey, would you be willing to take an immortality pill? Would it matter what age you were before taking it?

Did you know that there are companies operating today that share the collective goal of resurrecting the dead?
Posted by B.J. Murphy in category: life extension
In The Last Generation to Die, we explore the difficult conversation of what is to be done for the elderly who might miss out on the benefits of enhanced longevity. But if these companies somehow achieved their goal, however farfetched, that conversation would become moot.
Would you want to resurrect a lost loved one if given the opportunity?

Our Theory Of Aging & Blood Dilution w/ Saline & Albumin | Drs. Irina & Mike Conboy Interview Ep 1
Posted by Cherrie Ho in categories: bioengineering, biotech/medical, life extension, media & arts
In this video, Drs Irina and Mike Conboy talk about their theory of why we age and introduce Neutral Blood Exchange, which came from their original parabiosis experiments documented in a 2005 paper.
Our guests today are Drs. Irina and Michael Conboy of the Department of Bioengineering at the University of California Berkeley. their discovery of the rejuvenating effects of young blood through parabiosis in a seminal paper published in Nature in 2005 paved the way for a thriving field of rejuvenation biology. The Conboy lab currently focuses on broad rejuvenation of tissue maintenance and repair, stem cell niche engineering, elucidating the mechanisms underlying muscle stem cell aging, directed organogenesis, and making CRISPR a therapeutic reality.
