Genetics

Plant genetics will play a vital role in knowing what a plants desired soil type will be and if it is different from the current industrial method. With this information food growers can mimic the native geographic growing environment that the plant will thrive in.

Insito.me has an interesting application that will launch soon and deserves some attention in the field of human genetics. It would be interesting to find out if their data would allow for humans to follow early migration routes and if certain foods were brought to certain areas en route. We theorize that if we map our genetics back to a geographic origin, we would likely find our clan’s predisposed home food source diet. This would be significant in finding a proper nutrition dose for geographically disposed genetic symptoms.

“Centuries of selection for preferred traits, accelerated dramatically with the development of scientific plant breeding, have had tremendous positive impacts on food security and an improved quality of life. Today’s scientific advances in genomics and genetics are exploring new frontiers in plant breeding, including rapid and targeted advances in specific traits. But there is still more work to do and many goals to achieve. Constantly evolving plant pests and pathogens, global climate change, and changing social needs make plant breeding, genetics, and genomics ever more vital.” – Plant Breeding, Genetics & Genomics Programs | National Institute of Food and Agriculture

Liz is known as “the woman who wants to genetically engineer you,” she is a humanitarian, entrepreneur and innovator and a leading voice for genetic cures. As a strong proponent of progress and education for the advancement of gene therapy, she serves as a motivational speaker to the public at large for the life sciences. She is actively involved in international educational media outreach and sits on the board of the International Longevity Alliance (ILA). She is the founder of BioTrove Investments LLC and the BioTrove Podcasts which is committed to offering a meaningful way for people to learn about and fund research in regenerative medicine. She is also the Secretary of the American Longevity Alliance (ALA) a 501(c)(3) nonprofit trade association that brings together individuals, companies, and organizations who work in advancing the emerging field of cellular & regenerative medicine with the aim to get governments to consider aging a disease.

Parrish received two kinds of injections, which were administered outside the United States: a myostatin inhibitor, which is expected to prevent age-associated muscle loss; and a telomerase gene therapy, which is expected to lengthen telomeres, segments of DNA at the ends of chromosomes whose shortening is associated with aging and degenerative disease.

Ray Kurzweil – A Revolution in Medicine

Published on Apr 1, 2017

Kurzweil is one of the world’s leading minds on artificial intelligence, technology and futurism. He is the author of five national best-selling books, including “The Singularity is Near” and “How to Create a Mind.”

Raymond “Ray” Kurzweil is an American author, computer scientist, inventor and futurist. Aside from futurology, he is involved in fields such as optical character recognition (OCR), text-to-speech synthesis, speech recognition technology, and electronic keyboard instruments. He has written books on health, artificial intelligence (AI), transhumanism, the technological singularity, and futurism. Kurzweil is a public advocate for the futurist and transhumanist movements, and gives public talks to share his optimistic outlook on life extension technologies and the future of nanotechnology, robotics, and biotechnology.

Kurzweil admits that he cared little for his health until age 35, when he was found to suffer from a glucose intolerance, an early form of type II diabetes (a major risk factor for heart disease). Kurzweil then found a doctor (Terry Grossman, M.D.) who shares his non-conventional beliefs to develop an extreme regimen involving hundreds of pills, chemical intravenous treatments, red wine, and various other methods to attempt to live longer. Kurzweil was ingesting “250 supplements, eight to 10 glasses of alkaline water and 10 cups of green tea” every day and drinking several glasses of red wine a week in an effort to “reprogram” his biochemistry. Lately, he has cut down the number of supplement pills to 90.
