A Cure for Aging?
2 min reading time

Dr. Bill Andrews, CEO of Sierra Sciences, and Liz Parrish, CEO of BioViva Sciences, discussed “A Cure for Aging?” at this year’s 10x Medical Device Conference.

Here are the entire video, slides, and transcript: http://medgroup.biz/Cure-for-Aging. It’s a fascinating talk.

Liz starts with a statistic: 100,000 people die of aging each day, noting, until recent history humans would die from infectious diseases. As science improves, so does our ability to live longer – until we die of complications from old age.

Bill gives easy-to-understand insight into the role of telomeres in our death and his work with Telomerase, an enzyme at the core of his work to extend human life.

Treating biological aging as a disease, Bill and Liz combined forces to create BioViva Fiji and are building a large-scale production facility and clinic to provide a gene-therapy approach to cure aging.

They expect human trials in a year’s time.

Visit http://medgroup.biz/Cure-for-Aging a look and let us know: What do you think of the promise of their work?

Back in September 2015 I introduced Bill’s work with the discussion “Do you want to die someday?” at http://bit.ly/die-someday and members gave some very interesting comments. If you have time, give it a read.

Death is part of life, and immortality is unattainable. Moreover, this is a field that charlatans enter as though by engraved invitation. And the tape takes 48 min, a major investment for anyone. Nevertheless, it’s well worth it. I have not read the papers, nor scrutinized the data. This 30,000 foot overview, however, is intriguing and, at least preliminarily, passes the straight face test. The possibilities deserve more careful examination.
