Reply to comment by HeinrichTheWolf_17 in The end of ageing? The scientists behind the race to turn back time by cata890

So any predictions for what the 20s and 30s hold for anti-aging treatment? Aging cured by the end of the 2030s?

I would think so, De Grey thinks there’s a good chance aging will be cured by 2030. It’ll be useful for people near death but I think the majority of people will migrate off biology.

When's the most recent that he said that? 2030 would be nice... my dad would be 81 and my mom 78. Young enough to be alive and healthy. There's two 81 year olds in my family and they're still normal and healthy and not much different from eight years ago.

HeinrichTheWolf is fucking lying. He didn't reply to me, nor did he post any evidence for that claim. Aubrey never said that aging could be cured by 2030. Not recently, anyways. I'm sorry for your loss.

Oh, sorry if my wording was unclear. I can see how the word "would" would give the wrong impression. My parents are still alive and entirely healthy.
