- nobody thinks their dog’s death gives its life meaning.
- Replying to @elonmusk and @davidasinclairActually there IS a publicly-traded life insurance company that uses epigenetic clocks (GrimAge) to help gain an edge on mortality risk : foxotechnologies.com
- DON’T sign up for my newsletter. + It’s about longevity biotech investing. + Delivered to your inbox every Monday. + You won’t like it. Really. longevitymarketcap.substack.com
- Idea: Thiel Fellowships but for tenured academics to drop out of academia to start longevity biotech incubators. Probably needs to be more than $100k.
- Human biology is the ultimate escape room: You get 80 years to figure out the puzzle or you die.
- Does @elonmusk understand how evil this is? He wants every man, woman, and child on this planet today to die — (mostly involuntarily from diseases of aging)? Including his own children, his parents — everyone? The moral thing to do is give people choice. Fight aging.
- 🧵1/ LBF7 Spain is happening and we're doing something kinda wild: -We’re gathering the smartest people who want to SOLVE AGING -going to a longevity resort in the Spanish mountains -to learn, discuss and ACTUALLY BUILD stuff for 7 days straight Here’s what we’re cooking 👇
- This is not theoretical. This is happening RIGHT NOW. It’s time to get to work on aging. It’s an emergency.
- 1/ 📢 Big Announcement 📢 Today I’m revealing something that I’ve been secretly organizing for the past month (w/ @adanguyenx): 🧬(ODLB) On Deck Longevity Biotech Fellowship🧬 x.com/beondeck/statu… (Want to do something about aging? Please RT 🙏)Announcing: On Deck Longevity Biotech (ODLB) 🧬 Decades of research have shown that aging is a malleable and reversible process. The constraint for progress has been a lack of founders. Today we’re helping builders navigate this dynamic vertical. beondeck.com/longevity-biot…
- needing to solve aging & death firstWhat's holding you back from studying physics?
- “Alzheimer’s disease can obviously be fixed. The real question is whether it should be.” “Cardiovascular disease can obviously be fixed. The real question is whether it should be.” “Cancer can obviously be fixed. The real question is whether it should be.” - sociopathsReplying to @waitbutwhyThe precision of our biological clock across trillions of cells is incredible. One never sees someone with an old left arm, but a young right arm. Aging can obviously be fixed. The real question is whether it should be.
