  • Longevity Is Increasing Longevity has increased significantly almost everywhere in the world, with especially dramatic gains in developing regions (Exhibit 2). Life expectancy worldwide increased from 46 years in 1955 to 66 in 2005, with an increase to75 projected for 2050. Since 1950, developing countries have enjoyed a 23 year gain in life expectancy, from 41 to 64, with continued gains to 74 projected for 2050.

Replaceable You | Stanford Center on Longevity - 0 views

  • According to the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, the number of first-time total knee replacements is predicted to increase by 673 percent to 3.48 million procedures by 2030, while primary total hip replacements will jump 174 percent. What’s more, the number of knee revisions will leap 522 percent and hip revisions another 237 percent as patients who receive the joints earlier and live longer experience artificial joint failure. Joint replacement surgeries can cost $30,000

Population Aging is Accelerating | Stanford Center on Longevity - 0 views

  • Population Aging is Accelerating Age mix varies by region. In the more developed countries of the world, the number of old people will steadily increase, and the number of children will decline (Exhibit 4). By 2015, old people will outnumber children; this has already occurred in several countries, including Japan and Germany. By 2010, the working-age population will begin shrinking; by 2035, total population will begin shrinking.

    В 1970-е годы (когда основывали Национальный институт старения) осознали (в Конгрессе): многие болезни, изучение которых тогда щедро финансировали (рак, сердечно-сосудистые), связаны со старением населения. Поэтому, если лучше изучить старение, возможно, будет легче справиться и с этими болезнями (2:38 в видео).

The Millard Foundation and Funding SENS-Style Research - 0 views

  • If development of metabolic manipulation therapies to slow aging continues to dominate, progress towards enhanced longevity will be much slower, and the resulting therapies will be of no use to those already aged.

  • From what I've seen, the Millards have money, influence, and the intelligence to use it well
  • The Millard Foundation has been moving towards earnest funding of longevity science over the past few years: there have been initial donations, conference attendances, meetings with movers and shakers. All the normal activities and preparation by people who take investing very seriously.

  • Paul Glenn opted to place his first major funding initiatives firmly in the present mainstream - calorie restriction research, understanding metabolism, and attempts to slow aging through metabolic and genetic manipulation
  • Millard family is more inclined towards the Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence (SENS) viewpoint. This approach is to reverse aging without altering the workings of our metabolism by identifying and repairing damage: the engineering approach.

Блог тематических мини-обзоров свежих результатов биологии старения - 1 views

  •  
    Главное занятие автора блога в течение последних лет - чтение статей по биологии старения, осмысление результатов и публикация тематических мини-обзоров, отражающих и его мнение о предмете. Подробнее об авторе - в одном из недавних постов блога: http://anti-agingfirewalls.com/2011/02/13/the-evolution-of-my-perspective-as-a-longevity-scientist/ Мне блог кажется очень добротным.
