The foundation aims to fund research, organizations and projects that use blockchain and other next-generation technologies to find new horizons in four key areas of the field, namely therapy, personalized learning in medicine, artificial intelligence (AI) and predictive diagnostics. The announcement states that such projects can significantly change people’s lives even over a five-year period.
The main goal of the team was to apply theoretical longevity concepts to real use. The aim of the organization is to convert scientific knowledge and technological advances into clinical treatments and solutions through donations.
“By identifying and funding the most innovative and promising advances, the Foundation seeks to address one of the most pressing problems in the science and applicability of the elixir of fundamental inequalities in medicine. Access to and understanding of longevity-oriented treatments,” the statement read.
The fund’s contributors, who can also donate in cryptocurrency, have the right to vote to decide which projects are funded. A foresight panel selects and evaluates potential candidates “for good technical ability and potential impact on human longevity”.
