Title: "Methuselah Foundation Research - Views from the bird and the ant"
Presenter: John Schloendorn - Graduate student at Arizona State University Biodesign Institute, The Methuselah Foundation volunteer.
Presentation Description:

The Methuselah Foundation entertains two major projects to expedite a genuine cure for human aging -- The Mprize and SENS research. I will briefly introduce the two, discuss their strategic rationale, and report on their current status. I will then focus on SENS research in particular, and explain its role in the Foundation's quest for massive financial development.

In the second part of the talk, I will show some data from the current Mito- and LysoSENS projects, intended to obviate mitochondrial DNA mutations and cure all age-related storage diseases, respectively.

I hope that this presentation will convince those interested in leveraging the cure for aging ahead that
the Methuselah Foundation is currently the outermost tip of the longest lever, by far.
