They boost each other and block side effects? (In mice)

Rapamycin and metformin are viewed by many as the two most promising anti-aging drugs, but now scientists have found that these drugs can work hand in hand and show combined benefits, boosting each other’s effectiveness and blocking side effects — or at least that’s what we’ve seen in mice.

Cellular reprogramming by transient expression of Yamanaka factors ameliorates age-associated symptoms, prolongs lifespan in progeroid mice, and improves tissue homeostasis in older mice.

Talking about some of the ideas and philosophy surrounding life extension technologies. Our own psychology and coping mechanisms that view death as a good thing. The same way we used to see some diseases as a part of a gods plan. As soon as we cured these diseases, somehow they were not a part of gods plan anymore. The same will happen with aging and death, and that is just a matter of time. Picking apart some of the ways of thinking that suggest a longer life would be a boring or bad thing. We live for all of the pleasant and amazing experiences that we can have in the world, what else could possibly matter more. The end and absence of meaning (death) does not give life meaning. It is life that gives life meaning.

All around smart guy Dr Goerge Church talking about genetic engineering technologies.

George Church, Ph.D. is a professor of genetics at Harvard Medical School and of health sciences and technology at both Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dr. Church played an instrumental role in the Human Genome Project and is widely recognized as one of the premier scientists in the fields of gene editing technology and synthetic biology.
