    Yeah, the infusion does nothing. However, one can get a transfusion with themselves and while the blood is out of the body it is filtered and a small portion is replaced with saline and sometimes a protein and all instances so far show at the very least a healing effect. The first real human trial was done this past year and the doctors involved showed epigenetic clock measurements of 2 years younger.

    Yeah, I believe the Feds shut down my former roommate cuz he either didn't do any trials and claimed he had, or fudged the data to make it look like it was working.

    Shouldn’t he be banned from practicing across the US, and not just in MA?

    I think each state requires its own licensing, even though the fed (I think) oversees it all. I'm not sure. I just know (from hearing him yell/cry through the thin walls) that he lost his license to practice medicine in MA. And that's when he lost his job, and couldn't pay rent anymore. So he left for CA. And then I didn't think about him again until I saw the news a couple of years later about a young blood company being closed by the Feds and saw his name as CEO and Founder. And that didn't surprise me at all.

    This dude’s gotta be stopped. He’s a medical villain!

    It sounds like he (hopefully) has been stopped.

    The last I heard of him and his co was like 2020. His company closed down and he apparently started up the same business under a different name. But I think even that's gone too. You can google all of this. It's interesting and weird and I'm glad the Feds/FDA stepped in.

    Sort of? If he’s only banned from practicing in some states, he’s still on the loose. But hopefully the federal involvement means he’s done. What drives people like that? Odd.

    The guy was genuinely strange. After getting fired I don’t think he had anywhere else to turn but the super villain path.

    He’ll definitely pop up in the next big MCU movie.

    I'm sure Florida would welcome him with open arms.

    When the history is written about the mad scientist, the former roommate is always mentioned.

    Vid or link tell the same, that metformin and rapamycin were combined and had a synergy effect and importantly blocked each other's side effects.

    Gene mapping the immortal jellyfish

    A team of Spanish researchers has been successful in deciphering the genome of a jellyfish famed for its capacity to resurrect itself after death.

    Looking at the two medusas, researchers discovered that the immortal jellyfish had mutations that allowed it to limit cell division and prevent telomeres, the protective caps over the chromosomes, from breaking down. It also had two times the number of genes linked to DNA repair and protection.

    "Kushner explained that he thought he could be part of the "last generation that's going to die."

    He means last generation of billionaires going to die. The rest of will die just the same.

    I'm now suddenly thinking about that alien Pharaoh from Star Gate with the hi-tech healing sarcophagus. That's what this will end up being.

    Every single time I see this thread title I get quietly enraged at the transhumanist presumption its title implies. Jared Kushner quotes, for once, are something about awful enough to demonstrate that vividly.

    Simply put, true life extension is coming sooner rather than later. More realistically, bridges are coming very soon and hopefully they are good enough to get people my age to even better treatments. If this bothers you all you have to do is not take part when treatments hit the market. So then the future and all it transhuman evil will not be your concern because you will be dead.

    As far as Kushner goes, and the like, one thing which the rest of us will have to realize is that we will be taking the bad people along with us.
