Biological Immortality

2200: 175 Years From Now (+/- 50 years)
7 Generations From Now (from 2020 CE)

Biological immortality, or negligible senescence, is not invincibility against accidents or violence, but rather the cessation of aging and the ability to prevent or cure all diseases, including genetic disorders. Essentially, it involves maintaining the body and its functions in a youthful state indefinitely. The key components of biological immortality include gene editing, disease cure and prevention, and aging process interruption.

I think we’ll attain biological immortality by about 2200 because rapid advancements in gene editing, disease treatment, cellular repair, and aging research, combined with the convergence of AI, biotech, and nanotech, will lead to a comprehensive understanding and control of human biology, enabling the cessation of aging and the prevention or cure of all diseases, including genetic disorders, thereby achieving negligible senescence and biological immortality.

Michael Alan Prestwood
Author & Natural Philosopher
Prestwood writes on science-first philosophy, with particular attention to the convergence of disciplines. Drawing on his TST Framework, his work emphasizes rational inquiry grounded in empirical observation while engaging questions at the edges of established knowledge. With TouchstoneTruth positioned as a living touchstone, this work aims to contribute reliable, evolving analysis in an emerging AI era where the credibility of information is increasingly contested.
