I have degrees in Math and Biology (including a PhD from MIT) and have seen existence proofs of life extension in organisms due to gene knockouts I personally identified a gene involved in lifespan I have also funded a clinical trial at Stanford on aging (it didnt work! DOH! Happy to try again) Involved with anti-aging biotech companies ( BioAge and NewLimit ). BioAge now has an interesting drug for muscle Beauty & inspiration. Thinking about society-level beauty and inspirations at Monumental (coming soon!). Why don’t we build massive inspiring monuments and art projects anymore that can inspire people to do amazing things? Belief in progress is reflective. Human capital movements. The drain from key parts of society of smart, young, high conviction people is starting to show its impact. Am interested in projects to encourage really smart people to work in societally important fields which currently lack smart people. Projects I need help with: Monumental (coming soon!), a chain of new K-12 schools inspired by ancient Greece, two new foundation models I want to exist. Where you can find me.
