There are definitely doubts about biological immortality. However, life itself is a mystery of its own, unraveling it might require longevity to reach a state of immortality. This is why the brain of Albert Einstein has been preserved. Our disbelief in cryonics is visible, in the way our post-mortem brain is treated. It is buried [...]

Longevity, levity and life extension are amidst the most pre-historic quest that man has been dreaming of. It is explained through stories, myths, elixirs and is sometimes referred to as the fountains of youth. These topics are brought to the first page as superlative exponential advancement in technology is transcending to a new era [...]

Cryonics has since long been in the back mind of scientific progress. It can practically be defined as a method to preserve the life of a person, in particular circumstance when medicine will be unable to assure the survival of the individual. The objective of cryonic is to be able to transcend time (decades or [...]

Through the progression of age, our bodies produce fewer cells and it means we are unable to control our aging epidermis as we once could. Skin stem cells that are required to produce plump fresh skin are reduced considerably and do not function nearly as well. A new finding that involves plant stem cell experimentation [...]

Medical advancement has proved cell transformation more convenient than predicted. Fibroblasts, a type of skin cells can be converted into neurons with just some simple twists according to a recent report published. The transformation process did earlier rely on embryonic stem cells as differentiation of adult cells was thought too complex but not any longer. [...]

Aging of stem-cells is reversible, as humans are heading towards a new dimension of stem cell therapy. It was shown by a research team at Howards Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI), that an old mouse constantly exposed to blood from a younger mice enabled bone marrow stem cells to become young again. The determining factor [...]

The stem cell supply breakdown theory focuses on aging derived through pathologic problems. Research in the field of stem cell and decline in adult stem cell differentiation is comprehensively expanding day-by-day and still a work-in-progress topic. Stem Cell Supply Chain An appropriate way to simplify the introduction to stem cell supply chain would be to categorize [...]
