The Fifth Symposium on 'Pathways to Indefinite Lifespans

 Larnaka, Cyprus - Saturday 27 May 2017


Sponsored by International Antiaging Systems 

Place: House of Letters and Arts (near the Sun Hall Hotel Phinicoudes), Larnaka, Cyprus
Date: Saturday 27 May 2017, 09.30 -14.00 (Cyprus time zone)
Who is it for: anyone with a scientific background, who shares our philosophy


Description: Fine tuning of the mechanisms that can lead to radical life extension. The concept is now taking a clear shape and it is becoming clearer that human evolution, if subjected to an increasingly technological environment, will lead to the abolition of the process of ageing.


This meeting will be available live online: http://fm.kmi.open.ac.uk/fm/12d254-46033
It will be recorded and made available to the public. Organised by the ELPIs Foundation for Indefinite Lifespans and the Cyprus Neuroscience and Technology Institute. It is sponsored by International Antiaging Systems (www.antiaging-systems.com).

The Fourth Symposium on 'Pathways to indefinite Lifespans' has taken place in Larnaca, Cyprus on Saturday 21 May 2016.

 

 .............................................................................................................................

The Third Symposium on Pathways to Indefinite Lifespans 

 

Organised by the ELPIs Foundation for Indefinite Lifespans, and the Cyprus Neuroscience and Technology Institute

Where: The House of Arts and Literature, Larnaca, Cyprus

When: Saturday  23 May 2015 from 0900 am to 5 pm local time

How: A combination of oral and remote online presentations

What: We will discuss biomedical and non-biomedical ways of abolishing ageing.  Our aim is to discuss any ideas, hypotheses and suggestions regarding the total elimination of ageing and age-dependent degenerative pathology.

We will also celebrate a symbolic event, the 170th anniversary of the birth of the Russian/Ukranian scientist  Elie Metchnikoff, who first used the term 'gerontology'. The celebrations will involve events at the Symposium and during the week preceding it.

The meeting is generously sponsored by
