Here I am, with a list of developments I've kept hopeful track of, but ok.

Reasons for hope:

  • John Goodenough's battery

  • XNRGI's battery

  • Lyten lithum sulfur batteries

  • solar shingles

  • SpaceX

  • magnetic reconnection space drive (Fatima Ebrahimi) (2021) hopes to have a first prototype soon

  • Mach Effect

  • "augmented reality", HoloLens

  • hot fusion companies (including Apollo Fusion)

  • Quaise Energy geothermal power

  • detonation engine for rockets

  • NMN

  • Gaianneschi fatty acid drug delivery (2019, no news since)

  • DpC

  • TREM

  • ISRIB: small molecue cognitive enhanc

  • PAMPS hydrogel for cartilege = Bolt Biotheraputics's ISAC anti-cancer therapy

  • Alkahest young blood plasma for brain healing

  • αKLOTHO and TGFβR2 treatment for osteoarthritis

  • NaNots (NaNotics) - subtractive nanoparticles

  • Senisca - correcting dysregulation of RNA processing (2021)

  • retrolytics (2020, Andrew Gudkov)

  • GlyNAC (Rajagopal Sekhar)

  • LyGenesis (2022, starting first human trial)

  • Lomecel-B

  • MuTaTo (2019)

  • metarrestin - preventing metastasis - now in a phase I clinical trial (2021)

  • Hadiyah-Nicole Green (nano-particles with laser therapy) Ora Lee Smith Center (2020) trying to crowdfund there was another group that reported results with this... from Wales maybe?

  • PRL3-zumab humanized antibody binds PRL3 thereby inhibiting tumors, phase II clinical trial (2021)
