In today's episode of Our Longevity Futures, we are delighted to speak to Dr. Emil Kendziorra. As well as being a medical doctor, Emil is an entrepreneur and the founder and CEO of Tomorrow Biostasis.

Tomorrow Biostasis is a company, based in Berlin, that offers full body cryopreservation. In other words, Emil and his team offer the chance to freeze your body shortly after your death, preserving it until a time in the future when society possesses the technology to bring you back to life.

In today’s talk with Emil, we discuss the biology and technology behind cryogenic storage, and what the future might be like for those who wake up.

Main Show Description:
Over the last 150 years, our life expectancy has grown, from 40 years in 1850 to over 90 years today in some countries. This can be attributed to advances in medical science, improvements in public health, and equitable access to healthcare, especially for maternal and infant care.

What does the future hold for longevity and ageing?

According to the World Health Organisation, almost 70 percent of the population can expect to live longer than 85 years by 2050. Furthermore, by that time between 30% to 55% of the world's elderly will suffer from frailty. And if the right rejuvenation therapies are not used proactively in young and middle-aged people today, many of them will end up in their final years needing expensive medical care due to chronic diseases and disability.

Reaching the goal of enhanced longevity requires a paradigm shift in science, both in terms of the conceptualization of ageing and how research funding and knowledge are directed. It also requires a shift in our perceptions about aging. Currently, society considers older people to be less productive and burdensome to society. This view needs to change. We need to increase support for biotech efforts geared towards developing rejuvenation therapies that can be given to human beings starting at midlife.

The big question is whether we will be overwhelmed by a ‘silver tsunami’ of elderly people with poor health, or whether we will use the latest research findings to rejuvenate the elderly and extend their lifespans?

Our Longevity Futures is a show where I, Chris Curwen, speak to scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, doctors, politicians, and community activists who are giving the world the hope that we can all live longer and better, improve our health and the health of the world.
