Over a hundred-year-old's life and struggle of super human science

Cambridge genetics Department of Geriatrics biologists Aubrey de Grey (Aubrey de Grey) wearing dirty jeans with a pair of blue eyes, a long red complex beard, seems to be the core of Frankenstein.     But in the last year, this self-taught scholars to its theory on human aging aroused great attention. Mr. de Grey, 30 years later, human life has the potential to significantly extended. He said: "with drug efficacy, we must be like today treat many diseases, solving the problem of aging. "He believes today's many people may live to be 150 years old, or even longer. It's a bold prediction is based under the leadership of Mr. de Grey's a research project: "artificial control slow aging project". The research project to identify the seven and aging-related molecules or cells from damage, each "has the potential to solve through technical means, these technical means there's now exists, there is a positive development. "In the scientific community, de Grey has obsessed with suspicion. He is a pioneer or a nerd? is too naive or EVTA? but one thing is clear: his theory whether people agree that he's the man everyone is difficult to ignore. Chicago School of public health, epidemiology Professor Jay • aoshima ansky (Jay Olshansky) admitted: "I'm Aubrey fanatic admirers. We need him. I don't agree with his conclusions, but from the scientific terms, this doesn't matter, this can contribute to the advancement of the discipline. "De Mr. grey areas in other concerns are important. He became a new political movement in the United Kingdom the "spokesman". This political movement known as the "super human doctrine" (transhumanism), nowadays the Atlantic is getting more and more support.     The main credo of the campaign is the scientific and technological progress can give people free from disease and aging, let us live longer, healthier lives. "Super human doctrine" in the most basic form, is to promote we embrace new technologies, such as increasing intellectual drugs, surgical facelift and gene therapy, these new technologies can enhance our physical and mental ability, and let our "good good" is on the increase. Belong to the "super human doctrine" of some Futurists is even more extreme. For example, has recently published a new book "exceptional and not far away" (The Singularity is Near) Ray • Kurzweil (Ray Kurzweil) said, "ultimately, we will blend in with the technology ... To 2140, US intelligence in the capacity of non-biological parts will be the biological capacity of billions of times part. "These prophecies in the conservative religious and cultural community stirred up strong response, they think that super human is human nature. This prophecy as the freedom the leftist parties of bounce, they warned super human chauvinism may affect human equality and human rights.     United States scholar Francis • Francis Fukuyama (Francis Fukuyama) of the "super human" described as "the world's most dangerous idea". However, the human self improvement technique is starting from science fiction to go into the lab, and ultimately into the market, these response is no longer enough.     "Super human doctrine" is the driving force behind the progress that want to expand an existing pharmaceutical health care models, to enable mankind to live longer, healthier and more fulfilling. If these technologies are strict management, and truly allow public discussion, they have every reason to receive extensive support from the public. If you have a choice, most of us are willing to take this opportunity to live a longer, more than often say "life septuagenarians", even if we have to eat a wide variety of new drugs. Facelift for explosive growth illustrates that attitudes with each passing day.     These new technologies have to be tolerated by the people, but now it is in the TV show and fashion magazines, cosmetic surgery.     The key question is who can make the human self improvement and life extension ideas become mainstream? politicians and business leaders are trying to address the rising cost of pensions and health care, so you can understand that they may go to daydream a everyone can live 100 years old (but will also work) of the world. De Grey is Mr. himself as a champion of social reform movement, he must juggle callsign, let us start with the "support aging trance" awoke, not because of the State of impediment to seize the opportunities of longevity, etc. His arguments are not unreasonable. If politics is not to improve the quality of life, a longer life, then what is? super humans who have helped us a favor, to help us define a faction of political struggle, and this struggle has not begun.
