• forum.longevitybase.org - I’m rolling out a “StackExchange / Quora” for aging biology / longevity biotechnology. It is in open beta right now. Feel free to sign up and try it out. Email me if you would like to become a moderator or if you have some suggestions.

  • For academics, independent researchers, biotech founders, and scientific-minded enthusiasts.

  • Ask questions, get answers → builds a searchable longevity research knowledge base. 

• Announcing LongevityBase.org - Want to earn $100 in BTC? I’m going to be posting a task on 1729.com to incentivize volunteers to get the ball rolling on an open-source database for things that modulate biological aging. 

  • Basically, I want people to read longevity intervention research papers (in mammalian models and humans) and add entries to the LongevityBase Airtable. One parameter of aging (lifespan or some phenotype of aging) per line. 

  • The goal is to get to a critical database mass at which point people will volunteer to maintain it. Interested? First, subscribe to 1729.com or sign up here. Will be rolling out instructions soon.

• Every Friday @ 12PM - 5PM EDT. Longevity Virtual Coworking. If you are working on longevity or thinking about getting into the longevity industry, please join me for an experimental virtual longevity coworking space using the Pluto.Video web app. (No sign-up required.) 

  • Bring something to work on.

  • Feel free to ask questions. 

  • Help out. Connect.

  • I plan on holding this weekly. It’s free. (Room Link)  

• The 1% Bet for Longevity-- a website initiative. 32 people have now signed up for the 1% Bet for Longevity Pledge. My goal is to get to 50,000 people and at least 100 companies to pledge 1% of their resources towards funding longevity companies and research by the end of the year.
