I tried to accept you but that seems to have gone wrong. Can you please try again.

It shows me as a member

True. It does now. I dont know what happened. Maybe there is a slight update delay.

So we are now at 192 entrants. What I have done this time is to sort the entries by date and select the text description of the new entries. You will see from this why I don’t think generally there is that much useful information in the descriptions which tend to say how brilliant the team is rather than what they are proposing to do. Such is life.

A TEAM FULL OF SCIENTISTS

CHmoonshot Human life expectancy is 120 years, how do we live to Well-aging. No two identical leaves in the world, we are all unique. What we want to do is to detect, evaluate, intervene, and provide you with personalized holistic anti-aging solutions using frontier technology, and AI. From the outside in, from appearance to inner essence, improve your cellular, systemic functions with continuously upgraded products to revitalize your life.

Welcome to “Eternal Vitality,” a unique collective of distinguished scientists committed to extending human life through cutting-edge scientific research and technology. Our team comprises experts from various scientific disciplines, each bringing years of specialized knowledge and experience to our collaborative efforts. Eternal Vitality is at the forefront of longevity research, where dedication meets innovation.

The Existential Heroism Institute provides strategic analysis for world-scale issues along with research, reports, projects and educational materials to support social and environmental solutions. Knowing the difficulty of this task, we look to provide both the psychological grounding and cognitive toolkits necessary for the individual to develop into an Existential Hero. We are pursuing: - Lifestyle/ behavioral interventions - Biologics as therapeutics - New approaches to biomarkers of aging

The immune system is everywhere in the body. How can we tap into immune cells as living drugs to delay and even reverse aging? Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are a subset of immune cells responsible for maintaining immune homeostasis and promoting tissue repair. Engineered immune receptors, such as chimeric antigen receptors (CARs), allow us to redirect Tregs to any desired target and fine tune and augment their functions. We aim to unleash Tregs’ potential as cell-based therapies for aging.

My team underscores fitness and health for the aging, and how to stay relevant in an increasingly aging population. I am a 73 year old man. Like many my age I have some health conditions, but use minimal meds in general. I have the records to prove this. I think seven(7) years is too long to figure this out . I have the answer that I have been using for 32 years. I have the physical agility of a 17 year old male. I would like to share this method with others.

The epidemic of diseases of civilization has as main cause the fact that human body was not designed to process two fuels (carbs and fats) simultaneously. Once this incongruence between fats and carbohydrates is solved, the metabolic problems are receding and a human being can have a healthy long life. This incongruence can be solved by a variety of methods and in fact a keto or carnivore diet can work similarly to a vegetarian or vegan diet.

Every individual inherits a distinct genome, which will cause inevitable, various refractory diseases when aging. Although renewing damaged or aging organs by transplantation can be a radical or proactive treatment for all of us, the deficit of donor organs hampers this option. Our team will change this paradigm by generating livestock human organs using the innovative regenerative approach called conditional blastocyst complementation (CBC)-iSwitch-based strategy.

At SARI we are committed to asking the right questions about aging, because only by asking the right questions can we expect the correct answers.

As we age, our physical and mental abilities tend to decline due to various changes that occur in our body. However, taking steps to slow down this process and maintain our overall well-being is possible and highly recommended.

Anyone know anything more about this? If it has the right resources could be a game changer perhaps.

What I am doing is copying all of the text in each item with a carriage return line feed in between. This means that the two comments above are two comments.

The second is a team called: “Renewal of Aging Organs as a Therapeutic Approach”

This is their website:

Personally I count this sort of activity as a different type of activity to that which is targeted at mitigating or reversing aging. It is instead replacing organs that are not working.

In terms of the XPrize I am not sure it has much of a chance as although you might replace the thymus to improve immune response, replacing the brain to improve cognition is not something that would as far as I can see attract many volunteers.

Thanks John.

Actually there is a longevity paradigm that has been gaining momentum in the last 5 years or so that goes way beyond that.

The idea is that we can achieve a lot of rejuvenation through replacement with young organ and tissue systems, way ahead of the recipient’s organs and cells being close to “end stage organ failure”.

I.e imagine if we could give today’s John Hemming his genetically identical 14 year old equivalent (potentially improved/augmented) kidneys, hematopoietic system, thymus, mitochondria, etc, etc.

Or - which might not be as difficult as it sounds - transplant an entire healthy genetically identical, young body onto your head.

Then “all” that remains would basically be to work on rejuvenating the brain

  • and we’d likely have much more time to do that as your brain will likely age better/slower/partially reverse its age when in the new milieu of the 14 year old-ish equivalent young John Hemming body.

Here is a talk on the concept that you might find interesting

And here is a book that discusses the replacement concept - and even proposes what seems like a realistic way to solve rejuvenation of the brain:

Thank you for this long response. It remains my own personal focus is on identifying mechanisms to prevent organs failing in the first instance, but I accept there is value in research on alternatives.

I don’t, however, think it qualifies for the Xprize.

I am keeping an eye on this and the count is now 227, when it hits 230 (which it probably will by the end of the week) I will do another update. Clearly the number of teams being entered is unsurprisingly reducing as people who are active in this area will generally know about the contest. It hit 220 12 days ago so there is perhaps a new entrant every other day now.

Part of the team of Foresight is a “COO & Existential Hope Director”.

Part of Hamalainenen’s book description says:

Regenerative medicine is developing increasingly functional lab-grown cells, tissues, and organs that are being transplanted into patients today to treat diseases or repair damage. With continued improvements, cells and organs could be used in a more comprehensive manner to replace all body parts and reset the aging clock to near zero.

Doable maybe. But how long do we have to live to wait for this technology? So we have to endure until that time, by applying other approaches.

If the liver can keep itself at three years old, then the mechanism already exists in the body, to replace at the cellular level. This is replacement without having to do exogenous growing, for replacement. I do not know if there is research in this area.
