<div dir="ltr"><p class="MsoNormal">The suggestions for policy can be similar for most places:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:18pt">1) Ensuring a significant increase of governmental
funding for goal oriented progress on preventing the degenerative aging process
and for extending healthy life during the entire life course.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:18pt"> <br>
2) Developing and adopting legal and regulatory frameworks that give incentives
for goal oriented research and development designed to specifically address the
development, registration, administration and accessibility of drugs, medical
technologies and other therapies that will ameliorate the aging process and extend
healthy life.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:18pt"> <br>
3) Establishing medical advisory boards to develop clinical guidelines to
modulate the aging process and extend healthy life and scientific advisory
boards to steer future useful research on the topic.</p>

Remember there are many people here that are older than you.<br>

It is touching that the kids think a few decades are going<br>

Actually, future therapies might be good enough if one is non-old enough. Remember those sims I did, <a href="http://www.aleph.se/andart/archives/2009/09/life_extension_model.html" target="_blank">http://www.aleph.se/andart/<u></u>archives/2009/09/life_<u></u>extension_model.html</a> ? Of course, the sensible thing is to factor in hefty Bayesian uncertainty about everything anyway - hence the need for close-to-present risk minimization.<br>

Oops. There is no validated anti-aging therapy yet.<br>

Which reminds me. I will be talking to UK policymakers next week about life extension. What policy suggestions ought I make?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
