There are many distinct avenues of research encompassed by this, but they have one thing in common: rather than manipulating our metabolism to slow the rate at which it inflicts accumulating damage on our tissues and organs, rejuvenation biotechnology is all about repairing that damage even after it has accumulated substantially.Read about it here.
This blog is looking for wisdom, to have and to share. It is also looking for other rare character traits like good humor, courage, and honor. It is not an easy road, because all of us fall short. But God is love, forgiveness and grace. Those who believe in Him and repent of their sins have the promise of His Holy Spirit to guide us and show us the Way.

Rejuvenation biotechnology
Do you know about regenerative medicine for aging? Aubrey D.N.J. de Grey, Ph.D., writing at GEN, prefers to refer to it as rejuvenation biotechnology.
What I don't understand is the hostility that much of the alt-right/manoshere seems to have towards the possibility of regeneration/radical life extension. There was a screed over on return of kings several months ago where they guy was saying that radical life extension is not possible and even if it were, it would not be desirable. I fail to understand this luddite mentality.
