Matt Kaeberlein is asking for our support. He started a petition for continuing the dogs aging project. I’ve already signed, would be cool, if you do, also.

This is a really important project.
Sign to continue the project and send letters to your elected officials…the links are above and it will take you all of 3 minutes or less.
I hate to say it but we need more test subjects. The more that we know about aging the more we will be able to help humans.

I don’t know if it’s really that good, if we write a letter. If so, I wouldn’t mention, that we are already on Rapamycin. My fear is, that officials would want to stop self-experimentation.
This is why I just posted the petition.
Other thoughts?

I signed the petition. I hope you will, too. If you do, then add another message to this topic to keep it alive until Kaeberlein reaches his goal 12,800 signatures. That may happen soon, I hope.

I also signed this petition. It took about 10 seconds from the link. I wish I knew more about why the NIH withdrew funding. Likely someone doesn’t appreciate its relevance to human health.

Signed it, too. I hope that at the very least, if the worst happens and the study is terminated early, they can scrape together some useful preliminary data from the rapamycin trial.

Signed the petition, and forwarded to a couple of people who are also fans of the project, and who’ll sign the petition as well.

This might sound silly but could someone who takes rapamycin that has a lot of money help fund this and push it through? Someone like Bryan Johnson?

You’d think Peter Attia could help save the day.
