Also, there is the SENS Research Foundation, who currently are researching plausible pathways in which humans can achieve biological immortality. Lobsters are perhaps one of the most well understood biological immortals. Some species suspected of biological immortality are suspected to just age too slowly for modern science to accurately observe them losing steam. Various unicellular and multicellular species, including some vertebrates, achieve this state either throughout their existence or after living long enough. True biological immortals, however, all seem to have a trick to their longevity. Biological immortality (sometimes referred to as bio-indefinite mortality) is a state in which the rate of mortality from senescence is stable or decreasing, thus decoupling it from chronological age. Contrary to its name, biological immortality is not true immortality. Tortoises have since become a grey area in the world of biological immortality since some researchers suggest an eventual—albeit slow—loss of fitness in old age. A biologically immortal living being can still die from means other than senescence, such as through injury, disease, or lack of available resources.

Cloning: parts of the body for replacement or a whole human being.

Looking Forward .

As mentioned before, any animal that is biologically immortal is still susceptible to death from injury or disease. However, immortality is still within reach… Aging, in most organisms, is accompanied by a decay of telomeres.

Cloning is believed to be a branch of immortality studies and it is the most evolved one. Here are the five ways scientists believe to be able to achieve immortality: Unlocking the gene power: by cracking the mysteries of genes, scientists may be able to find an "immortality gene" and "implant" it. As we age, however, these telomeres wear away, and eventually, DNA loses functionality as … Nevertheless, research into a viable way of achieving biological immortality in humans are currently underway throughout the world and leading the way is Bioviva USA Inc., who’s CEO Elizabeth Parrish has already undergone gene therapy to reverse her biological age.

Also, there is the SENS Research Foundation, who currently are researching plausible pathways in which humans can achieve … Evolutionary biologist Michael Rose, professor at University of California, Irvine, says he has discovered a natural way to achieve “biological immortality” without the use of anti-aging drugs and stem cell treatments. Evolutionary biologist Michael Rose, professor at University of California, Irvine, says he has discovered a natural way to achieve “biological immortality” without the use of anti-aging drugs and stem cell treatments. Telomeres, simply, protect the ends of DNA.
