Cell loss, cell atrophy
Division-obsessed cells
Death-resistant cells
Mitochondrial mutations
Intracellular waste products
Extracellular waste products
Extracellular matrix stiffening
Replace, using stem cells
Reinforce, using telomere control
Remove, using suicide genes etc
Reinforce, using backup copies
Remove, using foreign enzymes
Remove, using immune system
Repair, using crosslink-breakers
Damage type The maintenance approach
Existence of any 8th is looking increasingly unlikely

This guy looks crazy; what do “credentialed”
people think about these ideas?
Even if he’s right, are the consequences for
longevity big/near enough to affect my work?
Even if they are, will society let it happen?

We DON’T WORK ON LONGEVITY,
whatever the media may like to tell you
However, we know that this medicine may
increase longevity a lot, I mean really a lot
We think this is a good thing, even though it
will put people like you out of business

• Rejuvenation therapies may never beperfect; the first-generation version maygive “only” ~30y extra life
• However, that would buy us time todevelop better ones, with which to “re-rejuvenate” the same people, and so on(“longevity escape velocity”)
• So…?

• Western mortality rate in the 20s isunder 10-3/y
• If it didn’t rise with age (and in fact it willsurely fall with time), most people wouldlive to over 1000
• Period (i.e. “headline”) life expectancywill very suddenly become incalculable(literally!)

• This is pioneering technology, so we don’t know
• Guess: 50% chance in 20-25y if funding rises soon
• At least 10% chance it’ll take >100y
• That’s for the therapies I’ve mentioned today
• They will probably give around 30yr extra life
• LEV thenceforth seems inevitable
• Everyone will understand the above this decade
