OVERVIEW

Human practices has formed an integral part of our project. We believe that the safe, optimised and controlled therapies that we have designed can now be successfully integrated into society as a result of our two-way dialogue with the wider world. Not only have we changed the way people think about ageing, but it has also changed the way we think about the problem (see silver and gold pages for more). Our project initially started off with the optimistic view of having one therapy that would target the removing the root cause of ageing. However, once we interacted with a variety of people, we realised that we needed to change our approach to a more effective and specialised one. Slowly we developed an interesting project that tackles ageing through the use of many therapies that all work to increase healthy lifespan of many aspects of the human body. Without the interactions with the experts, public and everyone else we have interacted with, we would never have created therapies that we believe to increase the healthy human lifespan. Below is an overview of how human practices has integrated into the way we worked and think about ageing, our biobricks designs and safety.
