2017 sees the first longevity and cryo international event in Spain in three cities! Great to see the interest in rejuvenation biotechnology growing globally.

Spain hosts its first longevity and cryonics event this year and we take a quick look at what’s in store.

When you picture deliveries by drone, you’re probably imagining a glittering craft winching the latest purchase from Amazon Prime down to excited suburban consumers. A thrilling technology, but ultimately one that serves to do little more than put delivery drivers out of work and further fuel our rampant addiction to consumerism.

However, in other less economically developed parts of the world, the humble drone could be nothing short of a revolution.

“Obviously robotics and autonomous technologies will have very large political and social ramifications in industrial countries, but we feel in poorer countries that are not industrialised and never going to be industrialised, then robotics can buy you some efficiency that you would not otherwise have,” said Redline Cargo Drone Network founder and director of Afrotech-EPFL Jonathan Ledgard in a talk at WebSummit about his ambitious project.

Making folks aware of the up coming Quantum Biology workshop in March.

The ninth Workshop on Quantum Effects in Biological Systems will be held in Jerusalem, Israel, on March 26 — 29, 2017.

More information soon, here.

Another interesting conference on Quantum sensors and hosted in China. Definitely looks intriguing.

Quantum sensing is a new quantum technology that utilizes quantum coherence for ultrasensitive detection.

Applications for this meeting must be submitted by June 4, 2017. Please apply early, as some meetings become oversubscribed (full) before this deadline. If the meeting is oversubscribed, it will be stated here. Note: Applications for oversubscribed meetings will only be considered by the Conference Chair if more seats become available due to cancellations.

This will be the last invention humanity needs, says Ben Goertzel.

In Brief A team of Chinese chemists have developed a method that could allow plastics to be turned into diesel fuel.

While several companies and institutions have been working at reducing the world’s plastic waste, they are hampered by the lack of means to dispose of them. The most common plastic, polyethylene, happens to also be the hardest to break down. But a solution seems at hand.

A team of Chinese chemists has developed a method for degrading polyethylene and turning it into a liquid fuel.

In Brief

• The game designers for Mass Effect have gone all out for scientifically accurate weapons.
• From rail guns to “element 0,” this science fiction game mirrors reality.

From the astoundingly stiff weaponry of 1995’s GoldenEye to the alien arsenal of the Halo franchise, video games haven’t always had the most realistic arms. But, in Bioware’s Mass Effect franchise, the game designers opted for scientifically accurate weapons.

What I have learned over the years is sometimes as we help our audiences learn in a pragmatic every day life how a particular science can improve their lives we then in time can share the science discoveries larger impact to people for their own development and understanding.

I believe with folks pramagtically in mainstream understanding Quantum computing and Q-Dot technology used for screen displays and graphene material in general, the larger mass can now understand the impacts and beauty of Quantum Biology. So the time is now to expand and evangelize Quantum Bio on a much larger scale so people/ consumers can now understand its impact to reverse aging, brain injury reversal and evolve to a more advance intelligence and function such as telepathy, immunology and new cell health to fit diseases like cancer, etc. Also, Quantum Bio will accelerate Biosecurity and robotics too.

Scientists have invented a new type of liquid crystal that allows tv and computer manufacturers to pack three times as many pixels into the same area of screen, while reducing the amount of power required to run the device.

This new type of blue-phase liquid crystal is so effective because it bypasses the colour filters used in current screen technology. This change alone reduces the amount of energy lost during light transmission by more than 40 percent.

“Today’s Apple Retina displays have a resolution density of about 500 pixels per inch,” says one of the team, physicist Shin-Tson Wu from University of Central Florida.
