In downtown San Francisco, an entire tower is becoming a hub for longevity, AI, crypto, and robotics. It just hosted its first longevity conference. How does a group conquer a big city? The longevity community unites tens of thousands of researchers, founders, and enthusiasts, but this is mostly done virtually. Things began to change after...

The 2025 Longevity Summit Dublin was held in July, and we have the highlights from the event for you along with the latest research updates and news from the conference. The Summit was founded by Aubrey de Grey and Martin O’Dea in 2022 and combines a plethora of noteworthy researchers and advocates in the rejuvenation...

On its website, Rejuve.AI, a company co-founded by its dynamic CEO, Jasmine Smith, and a renowned AI researcher, Ben Goertzel, promises a lot of things: to “democratize longevity, globally,” to enable you to “take control of your data, and harness its earning potential,” and to “unite against aging.” We have been following the company for...

Michael Levin, professor at Tufts University and director of Allen Discovery Center, has been working for years on how bioelectrical patterns affect development and aging. His research proves that this often-overlooked part of biology is immensely important and that mastering its mechanisms might one day do wonders for human health and longevity. By manipulating ion...

For most of the history of human civilization, humanity expanded at an astonishing pace: faster than exponential, nearly hyperbolic. This trend was famously described in a 1960 paper by Heinz von Foerster and colleagues, who extrapolated global population data to predict a so-called "Doomsday", a demographic singularity in which human numbers would become infinite by...

No other human endeavor today holds more promise than understanding and targeting aging. The molecular mechanisms that drive aging impact overall vigor, environmental stress resistance, reproductive health, and broad disease risk, and they fundamentally change what life means by radically changing our relationship to death. Intriguingly, aging mechanisms are highly evolutionarily conserved, so much so...
