Peter Thiel has turned to biotech, specifically focused on anti-aging

Posted on by

Co-founder of PayPal and initial investor in Facebook, Peter Thiel knows where to put his money and has an eye for what will be successful that much is clear. But now, his eye has drifted over to the biotech world, and once again, the money is rolling in.

According to MIT Technology Review, Thiel is now focused on defeating aging, an area of medicine he says is structurally underexplored.

Biotech has become cheaper and easier, so there is more probability for quick success making investments more reasonable for someone like Thiel. But he still understands the gamble at hand and seems to have a clear understanding of what hes getting into. As the Technology Review explained:

Most of Thiels biotech investments have been made by his charitable Thiel Foundation. But at least four biotechs have received funding from his venture capital firm, Founders Fund, including Cambrian, Emerald Therapeutics, and Stem CentRx, which has an antibody drug in clinical testing for lung cancer.

To Thiel, the biotech industry suffers from a structural problem. Companies have to spend tens of millions developing drugs that might work but might not. Theyre not really sure, because biology is so unpredictable and complex. Most companies are very heavily invested in the unpredictably paradigm, he says. But when you treat it as a lottery ticket, both the participants and the investors have already psyched themselves into losing. A small probability times a big payoff normally equals zero.

Thiel says hes not looking for companies that plan to gather empirical evidence, but instead would like those who have a theory that can systematically be put into practice. One example is Counsyl, a genetic testing company that Thiel has put $17 million in since 2011.

At the time, scientists were hyping the idea that DNA could tell you the risks for common diseases like diabetes. Instead, Counsyl created an inexpensive, highly automated, and consumer-friendly way to test for rare disorders whose inheritance patterns are well understood. In fact, they follow Mendels theory, first elaborated in the 1800s.

Counsyls tests are now used in connection with more than 3 percent of U.S. births, and the private company is valued at around $1 billion. It is one of Silicon Valleys unicorns, those rare runaway successes that Thiel often seems to be involved with.

According to Technology Review, Thiels additional interest in anti-aging strategies includes him taking daily growth hormones and currently being signed up for cryonic freezing.

The way people deal with aging is a combination of acceptance and denial, he says. They accept there is nothing they can do about it, and deny its going to happen to them.

New laser technology holds promise of youth

Posted on by

One of the many challenges of a dermatologist is when a patient asks for her skin to be restored to almost the same texture as a babys behind. With the availability of laser technology and advancements in science such demand is no longer impossible, especially with a skilled doctor.

We regard excellent skincare as an alliance of expert knowledge in aesthetic medicine, cutting-edge technology, and a genuine interest to improve the quality of life of patients, says Dr. Kyla Talens, whose expertise is laser treatment.

Dr. Talens understood the unpleasant impact of physical flaws on the human psyche at an early age. Growing up, she experienced firsthand the heavy emotional burden brought about by different skin issues such as scarring, severe acne, and pigmentation, among others. This fueled her drive to seek the best ways to improve peoples self-concept through physical enhancement.

COST-EFFECTIVE CHOICE

In her newly opened clinic Skin Philosophie Medical Aesthetic and Lifestyle Solutions located at The Fort Strip, Bonifacio Global City, in Taguig, she treats patients with a ground-breaking laser resurfacing technology with little or no downtime.

As we age, the skin begins to appear loose and to form deeper folds and drooping bulges as skin sagging ensues. At Skin Philosophie, we use the ultra-modern Palomar Lux 1540 Non-ablative Fractional Erbium Glass Laser, which tightens the skin and eliminates fine lines and deep folds. The machine delivers an array of high-precision microbeams to repair damaged tissue by coagulating the deeper layers of the skin and stimulating natural collagen and elastin production to improve the skins tone and texture. Its the cost-effective choice for skin resurfacing with faster healing and with little to no downtime, too, she explains.

To achieve faster results, Dr. Talens suggests coupling the laser treatment with non-invasive Face and Neck Intra-Therma Sculpting, which delivers focused radiofrequency (RF) energy that reaches the deeper layers of the skin. It helps improve the appearance of aging skin by contouring the face and neck while smoothing out problem areas like deep nasolabial folds and Marionette lines, bulging jowls, ill-defined jawlines, and turkey neck, among others, she expounds.

There is already a visible improvement right after the treatment. And the great news is that there will be continuous skin tightening and lifting in the succeeding weeks to a few months as collagen remodeling takes place. In addition, the effects last long enough that the treatment is done only once or twice a year.

In the case of nasolabial folds, which run from the sides of the nose down towards the corners of the mouth, and Marionette lines, which are lines that run from the corners of the lips downward towards the sides of the chin, dermal fillers can also be injected to make the facial contour smoother. Now, with the availability of a wide range of anti-aging procedures, patients can undergo non-invasive face lifting and contouring.

Formag INC Launched Best Anti Aging Product: Liquid Collagen Protein

Posted on by

New York, New York (PRWEB) March 04, 2015

Formag INC is a Tokyo based company in Japan. They have launched a highly effective anti aging product known as "Collagen Supplement" for men and women in US and other countries. The sixteen-year-old company is known for improving health of Japanese men and women with their 100% natural Collagen Supplements. Now for the first time, they are offering a powerful anti aging supplement called Liquid Collagen Protein outside of Japan.

Initially, the product was restricted to Japan. According to Formag INC, they are looking to offer the same product in United States and other countries. Professor Yozo Ishidzuka, who exclusively works only for Formag INC has developed this supplement by the 'Patented High-Pressure Technology' required for producing this supplement.

Shop this product from here: http://puremarinecollagen.co.jp/shop/

Professor Ishidzukas Youth Elixir and Love water consist of 20 percent collagen concentration. Collagen is necessary protein produced within the human body. It is responsible for keeping your skin young, nails strong, insulated joints, and healthy hair. Collagen is a much talked about health supplement today as people spend great proportion of their income on staying young and beautiful. However, not many manufacturers have come up with 100 percent natural products and that is the reason for the success of this product.

Its important to understand the basics and principles at work behind the new anti aging product. According to recent studies on marine collagen, liquid form is found to be best. As scientists believe, while extracting, collagen may lose a few of its benefits unless it remains in its original form that is liquid. This liquid collagen is naturally present in fish. Japanese have been consuming seafood for generations, which is the main reason why they have higher longevity than their western counterparts. Formag INC has understood this, and hence, they believe their product needs to be made available not only in Japan but also to the western countries where it is more necessary.

In addition to collagen, the product has high absorption rate. The company states that the products quality is better than most of other similar products out there, a crucial factor for any health supplement. At Formag INC quality is a major priority. They manufacture the product in a controlled scientific environment in small batches. Such process enables them to employ strict quality control which is often missing with other marine collagen products.

Formag INC is well experienced and dedicated to offer ultimate health satisfaction. Since 1998, they have been serving people of Japan. People who have tried this product in the USA are impressed with its performance. According to testimonials, people have seen results within three weeks of its use. Their skin not only looks young but fine lines have been softened. As the testimonials suggest, the product looks promising and is definitely worth trying.

From Naked Mole Rats To Dog Testicles: A Writer Explores The Longevity Quest

Posted on by

When journalist Bill Gifford turned 40, his friends gave him a cake shaped as a tombstone with the words, "R.I.P, My Youth." As he reflected on his creeping memory lapses and the weight he'd gained, Gifford got interested in the timeless quest to turn back the aging clock or at least slow it down.

His latest book, Spring Chicken, explores everything from some wacky pseudo-cures for aging to fascinating research that point to causes of aging at the cellular level.

"In high school biology we pretty much learn that cells divide and divide forever and that's kind of what they thought up until about 1960," Gifford tells Fresh Air's Dave Davies. "Now they know that cells actually have a kind of lifespan they have a limit to the number of times that they can divide."

Gifford says that after they're done dividing, the cells go into a state called "replicative senescence."

"So they go from being these lively dividing cells to basically retiring," he says. "And they're sitting there and they're kind of grumpy."

Scientists have learned that these cells are "basically toxic," he says.

"It's sort of like certain people bring everybody down," Gifford says. "Senescence cells are kind of the same way. Some people think that senescence cells actually drive much of what we recognize as aging."

Gifford's book not only explores the research at the cellular level, but he also looks at the history of anti-aging, how exercise, diet and stress affect growing old and interesting phenomena in the natural world like the naked mole rat. It lives long, shows no increase in mortality with age, never gets cancer and never experiences menopause.

"They live underground; they're from Africa and they live in a colony," Gifford says. "I held one in my hand and she was the size of between a mouse and a rat and she was 28 years old, whereas a mouse lives to about two years old. In human terms, it was like a 600-year-old person ... and she was pregnant."

These animals, Gifford says, have repair mechanisms in their cells that allow the cells to survive damage and live longer.
