Dr. Bill Andrews, Bobby Ridge (a.k.a. Robert Ridge), and Mihoko Sekido shared insights on medical science, promotion of health, and methods of communicating the forthcoming convergence of advances in a wide array of technological fields. Importantly, we addressed how anyone can get involved in the transhumanist movement and improve public acceptance of the emerging technological future.<\/p>\n<p>The following were some interesting areas of discussion:<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 The new Telomere Coin, which will help fund Dr. Andrews\u2019s research efforts \u2013\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/defytime.group\/\"><strong>http:\/\/defytime.group\/<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n\u2013 Bobby Ridge\u2019s forthcoming new video channel \u2013 Science-Based Species<br \/>\n\u2013 Aspects of online videos that help increase their reach<br \/>\n\u2013 Factors that contribute to longer lifespans among Okinawans<br \/>\n\u2013 Motivators for leading a healthier lifestyle and its relation to the recognition of the possibility of indefinite life extension in our lifetimes<br \/>\n\u2013 Some potential health effects of metformin and the importance of the ongoing TAME clinical trials<br \/>\n\u2013 What anyone can do to promote life extension and other emerging technological fields \u2013 including joining the U.S. Transhumanist Party for free on\u00a0<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/transhumanist-party.org\/membership\/\">this page<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>This video also contains some excerpts from the remaining conversations at the Third Enlightenment Salon, including discussions of science-based medicine, promotion of transhumanism, autonomous vehicles, and responses to the prospect of longevity escape velocity.<\/p>\n<p>Along with the recorded segment, there was much discussion about future directions of transhumanist initiatives, reasonably healthy food in a refined atmosphere, and previews of excellent video compilations that will become publicly available later this year. Mr. Stolyarov looks forward to hosting more Enlightenment Salons to bring together individuals in various fields of expertise and enable them to synthesize their insights into ways of comprehensively improving the human condition.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rationalargumentator.com\/index\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/3rd_Enlightenment_Salon_Picture_2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\"
