/ Immortality Corporation Vision
Dear friends,
Let me introduce you the Immortality Corporation work schedule.
The schedule is based on the analysis of the already existing research programs of "2045" Initiative Group Members, as well as other scientific communities from Russia and abroad.
Artificial Body Research and Development will be divided into several tracks, to be pursued simultaneously.
The four tracks and their suggested deadlines are optimistic but feasible. This is our program for the next 35 years, and we will do our best to complete it.
The fourth development track seems the most futuristic one. It’s intent is to create a holographic body. Indeed, its creation is going to be the most complicated task, but at the same time could be the most thrilling problem in the whole of human evolution. Perhaps it is the ‘radiant mankind’ Konstantin Tsiolkovsky wrote about.
We are in the process of creating focus groups of experts. Along with these teams, we will prepare goal statements and research programs schedules.
We invite interested specialists to contact us and join the discussion. We welcome your contribution.

GAVRILYUK“For skin on a cyborg, you simply need to create a nutrition system. And basically . . . we are not really complex in design! There are only a few systems: the circulatory system carries oxygen and nutrients; the excretory system extirpates the waste. The rest is end-effectors. To begin we can create a very simple living organism—then, later, more complex systems. . . .”

Rodrigue"While innovation is often presented as a technological process, it also needs to be applied everywhere and to everything. We need innovation in human affairs, from family relations to business affairs. Innovation has to address both ecological balance of species and destruction of inorganic habitats. Alternatives must be found for warfare and the arms industry. In short, innovation is a process that applies to all existence..."
