Life expectancy is on the Up

Life expectancy is on the Up Global life expectancy has increased significantly over the past 50 years or so. According to research, the first person to reach 1,000 years of age will be born in the next two decades. FACTS AND FIGURES 20% of The world's population will be over 60 years old by 2050 Misao Okawa from Japan holds the current record for the oldest person alive at years 116 of age Misao Okawa live almost24 years longer North Americans than people from Sub-Saharan Africa are supposed to In the year 1000 the average infant could expect to live about 24 200 The world's average life expectancy has doubled in Japan's average life expectancy for has been higher than "AO now the U.K.'s and U.S.A's Country LIFE EXPECTANCY AROUND THE WORLD WORLD LIFE EXPECTANCY MAP 80 + 75 + 70 + 65 + 65 + 60 + 60 + 55 + 50 + 50+ 45 + 45 + 40 + 40 + 40 below 40 below How Life Expectancy Has Changed over Time In the United States 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 1850 1860 1870 1880 1890 1900 1910 1920 1930 1940 1950 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 A glance at other countries 1960 2011 71 82 71 82 68 83 71 81 43 67 42 66 A Look into the Future Search The UN estimates that the proportion of people over 60 will double between 2007 and 2050. There will be two billion people over 60 in the world by 2050, and around 400 million over 80. Average Life Expectancy by 2050 83 - 86 89-94 *Figures based on U.S. living Technologies to Make us Live Longer Brain-Computer Interface |A brain-computer interface (BCI) is a direct communication Nanobots Nanobots are artificial devices capable of protecting every cell in the body from disease pathway between the brain and an external device. It can interact and injury. They are largely in the re- search-and-development phase at represent. However, by early 2030's or more, it is expected that they could become a reality. with an existing neural function to restore cognitive abilities and functions. Through this technology brain damage will never be permanent thus prolonging life. Printing Organs Anti-Aging Enzymes Research has concdluded Researchers recently discovered how skin cells can be transformed into embryonic stem cells. This process will enable doctors to repair worn and damaged organs; and when necessary, regrow new ones. that two enzymes SIRT3 and SIRT4 are responsible for the process of aging. The cells' ability to divide and reproduce when hindered shows the signs of aging on humans. If science can restore the depleted cells, the effects of aging can be eliminated.
