what is more cutting edge then this?
Discussion
I thought the landscape perspective was interesting, with the thermodynamics/physics-style model of landscapes that shrink over time representing resilience. and to make a large stride would be ways to keep those hills from shrinking. never heard of that perspective before, even attia mentioned that was new to him, and he wrote a book on longevity.
brian just joined the board of a company called gero run by a physicist named peter fedichev which is where most of this context comes from.
its cool work and one of the more grounded approaches in the space.
to answer your Q of what is more cutting edge, one i am for: EMF based approaches, ex think of an MRI that can read and write to the body, and one I am less for is whole body replacement- so there are real companies out there growing clones in a vat with the forebrain knocked out and the engineering problem is how do you get the clone to maturity without it being able to navigate the world to have organs developed enough to replace with your own and some are working towards this with the intent to do a head transplant. for more on this could look up john schloendorn
Is that the morphological changes via bioelectricity manipulation idea?
mike levin’s lab mainly focuses on chemicals and mrna to alter bioelectric state of cells but generally speaking yes- this is what we work on and some other in this space but v few
very cool, where can I follow/read more about this stuff ?
mike’s blog thoughtforms.life and the associated podcast/unedited working conversation uploads are good for bioelecticity alpha.
other than that- hard to say. i go to alot of conferences and reach out to people but part of my job to stay on top of things in this space.
here’s my self plug of a recent blog on why membrane theory as we understand it is wrong / basis for the work we are doing, towards a read-write OS for biology using emfs
