This book reviews the state-of-the-art efforts to apply machine learning and AI methods for healthy aging and longevity research, diagnosis, and therapy development. The book examines the methods of machine learning and their application in the analysis of big medical data, medical images, the creation of algorithms for assessing biological age, and effectiveness of geroprotective medications. The promises and challenges of using AI to help achieve healthy longevity for the population are manifold. This volume, written by world-leading experts working at the intersection of AI and aging, provides a unique synergy of these two highly prominent fields and aims to create a balanced and comprehensive overview of the application methodology that can help achieve healthy longevity for the population. The book is accessible and valuable for specialists in AI and longevity research, as well as a wide readership, including gerontologists, geriatricians, medical specialists, and students from diverse fields, basic scientists, public and private research entities, and policy makers interested in potential intervention in degenerative aging processes using advanced computational tools.
Modern humanity with some 5,000 years of recorded history has been experiencing growing pains, with no end in sight. It is high time for humanity to grow up and to transcend itself by embracing transhumanism. Transhumanism offers the most inclusive ideology for all ethnicities and races, the religious and the atheists, conservatives and liberals, the young and the old regardless of socioeconomic status, gender identity, or any other individual qualities. This book expounds on contemporary views and practical advice from more than 70 transhumanists. Astronaut Neil Armstrong said on the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969, “One small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.” Transhumanism is the next logical step in the evolution of humankind, and it is the existential solution to the long-term survival of the human race.
This edited volume focuses on the interplay between sleep and circadian rhythms with health, aging and longevity. Sleep is absolutely important for human health and survival, as insufficient sleep is associated with a plethora of conditions, including the poor quality of life, onset of several diseases, and premature death. The sleep–wake cycle is an evolutionary conserved neurobiological phenomenon, and is a prominent manifestation of the biological clocks localised in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). Understanding bidirectional relationship between sleep and circadian rhythms is of utmost importance and urgency, especially in the context of modern lifestyle where sleep is often out of ...
This handbook is the next volume in the series of the scientific and educational publications of the European Society of Preventive, Regenerative and Anti-Aging Medicine. To promote the development of the science and practice of anti-ageing and active longevity, ESAAM has published in 2023 the Handbook of Anti-Aging Medicine. This cornerstone book was devoted to main theoretical issues in combating the mechanisms of aging. Current handbook provides the basics of practical life extension protocols. Leading specialists in regenerative and longevity medicine presented their valuable recommendations. Special attention is paid to the fundamental principles of the longevity clinic, as well as prac...
This book is designed to offer a comprehensive high-level introduction to transhumanism, an international political and cultural movement that aims to produce a “paradigm shift” in our ethical and political understanding of human evolution. Transhumanist thinkers want the human species to take the course of evolution into its own hands, using advanced technologies currently under development – such as robotics, artificial intelligence, biotechnology, cognitive neurosciences, and nanotechnology – to overcome our present physical and mental limitations, improve our intelligence beyond the current maximum achievable level, acquire skills that are currently the preserve of other species,...
This edited volume studies gut microbiota peculiarities in elderly, in senescence-related and environmental-related alterations of gut microbiota in chronic diseases. Aging, as a physiological process mediated through several regulatory pathways and transcription factors, is generally speaking associated to a relentless functional decline and increasing risk of chronic diseases. Growing data on gut microbiota quali-quantitative changes in aging gut, and the opportunity to study by advanced NGS and metabolomic technologies, now offers novel horizons to link such changes to disease risks and to theoretically the weapons for gut microbiota intervention as an effective therapeutic tool. Chapters...
What is the Fountain of Woof? In this first-of-a-kind book for dogs and their people, Dr. Franklin Utchen, a small animal veterinarian with over 35 years of experience in daily practice, helps answer that question. Based on exhaustive research in dogs, humans, mice, and more, he details the leading-edge knowledge about the science of longevity as it applies to our dogs. Dr. Utchen explains in common terms why an animal ages and discusses the simple “longevity” meds that a pet caretaker can start giving today to help a dog live his or her life as long and healthy as possible. If you want to know the latest information about how to help an old dog live younger, and a young dog live younger longer, then this book is for you and your pup.
