Scenarios about 'biogerontology'
The scientific field studying the biological processes of aging and potential interventions to extend healthy lifespan. Biogerontology examines genetic, cellular, and molecular mechanisms underlying senescence, age-related diseases, and longevity across species. In alternate history scenarios, advanced biogerontological breakthroughs could dramatically alter demographic structures, economic systems, and social hierarchies by enabling significantly extended human lifespans.
What If Life Extension Technology Was Developed?
Exploring the alternate timeline where scientific breakthroughs in the early 2000s led to effective human life extension technologies, fundamentally transforming society, economics, and the human experience.
