Awesome! John is a great guy, and will provide a lot of insights, I am sure.

Kent23 (Imminst member), another researcher working on the LysoSENS project will be joining the chat on Sunday evening.

I'd love to come too, but I'll be traveling on sunday.

That should be worth staying up later for .

A lot of people scour the news looking for the latest research and supplement news, wondering when there will be some big break-throughs, some REAL anti-aging therapies. Well, here is your chance to chat with someone on the frontlines of the SENS quest. It is the first funded project with the aim of engineering a reversal to some of the damage that accumulates in the human body as it ages. John and Kent have been working diligently behind the scenes and you can get the insider view on Sunday evening.

Perhaps people that plan on attending could read up on LysoSENSs and then post some questions here in order to prime the pump so to speak. Mind, I know you like to ask some questions to get things started. Perhaps draw from this list (assuming people post questions)...

Are the any plans to screen for bacterial enzymes that can digest modern foods?
Everything from charred bbq to baked goods to caramel i.e. products of the Maillard reaction and on the other hand colors, preseravtives, sweetners and even pesticides?

Question for tonight's chat: What do you think of DMAE as a way to mobilize lipofuscin?

Besides the "dirt donations" is there anything else, now or in the future that Imminst members can help with in this project?

Curious: Right now we are focusing on 7KC and A2E, but how many known types of junk molecules are there in total?

Another question: since the reason they mostly accumulate in humans and not animals is because the latter die too early, could an extension of the human lifespan, say to 150, cause us to begin accumulating new types of henceforth unknown junk molecules?

Sorry, looks like I'm not going to be there.

Great questions Hudzon, thanks.

Also, I checked out the chat room just now and everything seems to be working fine.

Just a reminder for those who haven't attended the chats before. I will usually start out asking a couple of questions, then after 15 or 20 minutes the chat becomes an open discussion. I do this so the guest doesn't end up bombarded with 20 questions right off the start.

Bram: You proposed some structures that 7KO gets degraded to by the bacteria - can we get rid of those products ourselves or do we need further degradation?"

Also, I apologize to European members for the late start. I am still trying to get some guests who would be willing to do earlier times. I have at least one that will be earlier, perhaps next week.

Hi all,
I'm having out of the blue problems connecting. A couple of days ago all seemed fine. We may need to switch this to skype. We're still trying to find a solution, but for all of you who don't have skype, it's probably a good idea to start downloading...

OK, I can't fix this. We're doing it on skype. If you would like to join, all you need to do is send Mind or me a skype message and we'll add you.

Thanks for the encouragements by the way!

Again, if you would like to join this chat via Skype, send john or I a skype message ad we will add you. My skype name is mind_imminst.

How'd it go? Sorry I couldn't make it; I was busy doing other things.

Two hours of inspiring details about LysoSENS and the awesome and creative people hard at work. The Kemmish story was especially inspiring...

Definitely a story to follow.

I will be posting a transcript later today (hopefully before 18:00GMT). As Richard mentioned, it was a great chat about the science of LysoSENS, politics, egos, how people can help, etc...

Was it voice or text? If voice can you please podcast it? Thank you

Here is the text of the chat. It is a worthy read. I apologize for the 5 minutes missing near the end. There is apparently a limit to how much text can be copied out of the Skype chat window.

For a discussion of voice chat/podcast, see here.

Yeah, it is fairly easy to record Skype into an audio file. I did it a few times, and it just automatically recorded/saved it to an mp3 (or whatever file format I chose) for me when I clicked hang up.

Thanks for the transcript, Mind. I am going to read through it now.

sorry I had to bail early. Would have liked to have stayed but other obligations intervened.

This is the full transcript, with nothing missing as far as I can tell

How was the transcript made? I'm under the impression this was a voice chat, no?
