Learn More: Read "Ending Aging"

Take Action!

Read the book in which biomedical gerontology Aubrey de Grey and his research assistant Michael Rae explain - clearly and for the layman, as best we know based on the biotechnology and scientific knowledge of today - how we can band together, build a mighty research infrastructure, and greatly extend our healthy life spans soon enough to matter.

We have reached a potential tipping point in human history: a time in which the quest to extend the healthy human life span can be taken seriously and extensive resources devoted to understand and defeat the aging process. For the price of a cup of coffee per day, would you like to join a select group of humanitarians who will be remembered for their vision and saving millions of lives? More >>

Raise Funding For Calorie Restriction Research

Take Action!

Active members of the Calorie Restriction Society have had a positive influence on the degree and direction of calorie restriction (CR) research in humans for a number of years now. The society is stepping up again, this time to raise funding for further CR research. This initiative will build upon existing relationships with talented, well known scientists to correlate gene expression and cell signaling indicators in human calorie restriction practitioners to clinical markers of health and aging.

Help Meet Peter Thiel's $3M SENS Matching Grant

Take Action!

In September 2006, entrepreneur and investor Peter Thiel greatly advanced the healthy life extension cause with a $3 million dollar matching grant for donations to SENS research aimed squarely at the defeat of aging. For every $2 donated to the Methuselah Foundation's SENS research projects, $1 of this grant will be applied. We have until the end of 2009 to to exhaust this grant - so let's get to work! More >>

Dig Dirt For LysoSENS Research

Take Action!

When was the last time you really looked down at the ground you walk upon? The soil from your backyard - or the next street over, or a nearby graveyard, or the park across the way - could contain a key to advancing real anti-aging science: bacterial enzymes capable of repairing biochemical damage that accumulates with time and leads to age-related disease. LysoSENS researchers want you to send them a sample for analysis - so get digging! More >>

Support the Immortality Institute

Take Action!

The Immortality Institute is a non-profit organization working hard towards the same healthy life extension objectives as the Longevity Meme. Education, outreach and advocacy for healthy life extension are all very important. We at the Longevity Meme urge you to support the Immortality Institute by becoming a member. More >>
