the prospects for solving aging with bioengineering

Malav Trivedi and I were wondering how long it might take to find bioengineering solutions that can reverse aging enough to keep people from aging to death. Below is our sketch of one possible timeline we worked out for the Longevity Biotech Fellowship.

2060 Longevity Forum

I was invited to speak at the inaugural 2060 Longevity Forum and had a great time meeting everyone. Many thanks to the 2060 Foundation for hosting the event. My talk was a 10-minute overview of the Longevity Biotech Fellowship‘s Longevity Acceleration Roadmap, which you can watch below.

Longevity Biotech Fellowship Roadmap

I was invited to present the Longevity Biotech Fellowship‘s roadmap at Infinita City and had a great time hanging out with everyone. The original recording is here but, in the video below, I’ve added the presentation slides for clarity. If you have any questions about longevity technology, investing, or how you can help, please letContinue reading “Longevity Biotech Fellowship Roadmap”

Libertarian Scholars Conference 2025

I was invited to speak at the Libertarian Scholars Conference this year and gave a short presentation on Michael Huemer‘s paper Lexical Priority and the Problem of Risk. Here is the video: I saw quite a few excellent presentations during the conference, so you can look forward to reading some fun papers when they areContinue reading “Libertarian Scholars Conference 2025”

what is aging?

I recently attended the Longevity Frontiers Workshop, which was a fantastic event hosted by the Longevity Biotech Fellowship and the Foresight Institute. One of the highlights was an impromptu debate on the underlying mechanisms of aging between Jean Hebert and Vadim Gladyshev. So, what is aging?

the Mtindo Network

I recently learned about the Mtindo Network, an organization based in Uganda that promotes liberty and economic development through education. They asked for a digital copy of The Ethics of Anarcho-Capitalism so they could print physical copies to distribute in Uganda and neighboring countries. Did I dare to give the layout and cover files toContinue reading “the Mtindo Network”

the geroscience hypothesis

The older you become, the more likely you are to get a variety of diseases: atherosclerosis, cancer, diabetes, etc. Part of the reason is that your cells and organs don’t work as well at advanced age. Your cells have more genetic damage, so they become cancers more frequently. At the same time, your immune systemContinue reading “the geroscience hypothesis”

Discernable

Matt Wong invited me for an engaging, hour-long interview on Discernable. We covered a wide variety of topics including anarcho-capitalism, when to be afraid of technology, and what Michael Malice is like off camera. If you make it to the end, Matt asks me for the best argument against libertarianism and, admittedly, there is aContinue reading “Discernable”
