I want to die young, as late as possible. In Iaki Gabilondo’s program, When I go, a group of scientists analyze the advances in science in cellular rejuvenation and how this would affect the aging of the population.
There is no empirical evidence that longevity has reached its limit at 120 years, which opens the door to greater survival.
- Aubrey De Gray.
- An English biomedical gerontologist trained at the University of Cambridge.
- Is a researcher known for his strong defense of the idea that indefinite life expectancy is possible.
He believes that scientists will not only be able to stop the aging of the human body, but will also develop strategies to restore youth.
To these precepts are added some voices of the scientific community, there is a good chance that we will develop drugs in the next 20 or 30 years to convert a person of 60 or 70 years in one of 40 or even 30 years. .
“When I did heart transplants, I saved 150 lives. If I had focused on preventive medicine earlier, could I have saved 150 million lives?-Dr. Christian Barnad
Already born people who will live 130 years, points in this direction Juan Carlos Izpisua, Spanish pharmacist, whose publications exceed 26,000 citations and focus on the biology and development of stem cells.
His studies aim to identify the molecular and cellular mechanisms responsible for embryonic development, and his contributions have enormous potential in the field of transplants and in the fight against aging.
Researchers from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have successfully developed a technique to eliminate damage to cells with age.
The method could help stop, if not reverse, one of the main causes of aging.
The team of scientists, led by biologist Nikolay Kandul, has managed to find a way to eliminate genetic mutations that accumulate in the mitochondria, the small organelles responsible for energy production within cells. The book was published in 2016 in Nature Communications.
Life on our planet is made up of the combination of four letters, ACGT. A human cell contains about 3. 2 billion letters. Minor errors in a cell’s alphabet cause disease, some of which are incompatible with life, all of which can be reduced with these new advances in cell regeneration.
“In 2045, death will be optional and aging will be a curable disease” – José Luis Cordeiro, founder of Singularity University in Silicon Valley-
Proof that it is possible to cure aging is that there are already cells that do not age in the wild, such as germs, cancer cells and certain bacteria.
In biology, the most well-known cells are HELA. Analyzing them, it was discovered, as early as 1951, that cancer is immortal and does not age.
This new immortality will change the whole concept of society, because what happens in stem cells, which never age, could be moved to the whole body.
There is another crucial date in all this, 2029, the year in which the Alan Turing test will be held. This British scientist has ensured that the day will come when a human being will no longer be able to distinguish between himself and another equal or a form of artificial intelligence.
Each technology allows to create new technologies and there is an acceleration of acceleration, which will allow in ten or fifteen years a human brain to connect to the Internet. Technology will play a crucial role in reversing aging.
Even talking, which is a primitive skill, will be telepathic in the future thanks to technological advances, as if it were magical.
