Always nice to read interviews by Aubrey de Grey.<br /><br />"And an awful lot of people don't want to get their hopes up, for fear of having them dashed.... so they stick to what they know, their faith that aging really is still inevitable."<br /><br />I encounter this all the time.JLLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01200324973565346888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7049415900026167371.post-71356457503301661202009-09-23T17:50:42.926+03:002009-09-23T17:50:42.926+03:00you may find this of interest in regard to the art...you may find this of interest in regard to the article...<br /><br />http://ageing-research.blogspot.com/2008/06/ageing-research-and-media.htmlbrainwashednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7049415900026167371.post-32661300812884245992009-09-22T16:28:22.412+03:002009-09-22T16:28:22.412+03:00Money for research is always limited.

A large preportion of money should be spent improving the lives of the people suffering here and now and not in 10 or 20 years from now. Research into anti-ageing therapies should obvious continue, but the majority of research should focus on short-term fixes in the meantime.cozmicnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7049415900026167371.post-71780647600783611632009-09-17T02:22:20.742+03:002009-09-17T02:22:20.742+03:00And Godwin's law strikes!

Nice post, by the way.<br /><br />Mac1 if you cure heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis (incl. hip fractures) and some more you gain ~10 years of life expectancy. If you slow down aging by a mere 10% (e.g. as demonstrated by late life rapamycin in mice), your pay off is already bigger than eradicating cancer...Kismethttp://www.imminst.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7049415900026167371.post-2118048877705676122009-09-16T13:05:41.728+03:002009-09-16T13:05:41.728+03:00@mac1,

I'm also not saying we should ration health only to the healthy (why would the healthy even need it?), I'm saying that by curing aging you cure hips and a lot of other health problems at the same time, which makes it more sensible than pouring money into geriatrics, which does nothing to solve the actual problem.JLLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01200324973565346888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7049415900026167371.post-61034056898089065072009-09-16T11:47:53.129+03:002009-09-16T11:47:53.129+03:00Like most "younger" commentators,this pe...Like most "younger" commentators,this person assumes that hip replacements add nothing to the quantity of the populace. Sadly, a $5000 hip replacement is vastly better economically, than the cost of caring for the immobile. What's not to understand. Rationing health to only the sane & healthy, was is something Hitler approved of.mac1Mackson68https://www.blogger.com/profile/00709345492618085347noreply@blogger.com
