Replacement
for Lifespan Extension
Replacement is an engineering approach to aging that requires fewer fundamental advances in discovery in aging/biology. It focuses on replacing aged body parts with lab-grown or synthetic alternatives, such as organ transplants, cloned tissues and whole-body replacements, aiming to extend lifespan without needing to fully decode aging mechanisms.

Whole body replacement via cloned or synthetic embryo with neocortex knockout for head or brain transplant.
Whole body replacement via cloned or synthetic embryo with neocortex knockout for head or brain transplant.
Whole body replacement uses cloned or synthetic embryos with a neocortex knockout, creating non-sentient bodies for head or brain transplants that ensure compatibility and prevent rejection.

Limb Regeneration
Activation of stem cells and tissue scaffolding to initiate and guide the regrowth of complex tissues. By leveraging growth factors, gene editing, and bio-electricity, we aim to replicate the remarkable regenerative capabilities found in species like axolotls
