ELPIs Foundation for Indefinite Lifespans

Non-profit research organization studying biomedical and non-biomedical approaches to indefinite lifespans

The Foundation is located in Larnaca, Cyprus and London, UK but has a global presence. Our objectives are inherently based on our long-term vision of a world where involuntary death due to ageing has been eradicated.

OUR MISSION

To formally research, discuss and describe strategies that may lead to the abolition of involuntary death due to ageing.

In order to accomplish this, we will:

1. Initiate and maintain dialogue regarding the philosophical, scientific and medical issues related to the matter, i.e. the achievement - not the consequences - of human biological immortality (indefinite lifespan, when the rate of mortality as a function of age approaches zero). We will also encourage sharing and development of opinions, thoughts, ideas and hypotheses that have immediate relevance to this issue.

2. Using a praxeology approach, suggest directions and possible topics for research in order for our aim to become workable.

3. Collect and evaluate relevant existing research, conduct research, and promote future research in practical terms, through the ELPIs Foundation for Indefinite Lifespans and other relevant research organizations.

4. Identify areas or issues that have interim practical and therapeutic relevance in order to ameliorate current age-related diseases and general functional decline, and suggest ways of applying these to humans temporarily, until our aim is achieved.

OBJECTIVES

- Research the possible relationship between evolutionary complexity theories, neurobiology and technological acceleration with regards to HBI

- Discuss how HBI may manifest itself and examine any early signs that this is currently happening

- To disseminate ideas and information relevant to HBI as well as practical aspects of these strategies to the public
