Christine Peterson is cofounder and past president of Foresight institute, the leading nanotech public interest group. She writes, lectures, and briefs the media on coming powerful technologies, especially nanotechnology and life extension. Peterson holds a bachelor's degree in chemistry from MIT.   Christine Peterson, future tech expert and board advisor for the Machine Intelligence Research Institute, sees into the future in a way that most cannot. In the constantly advancing world of technology and research, it is her job to look at what is happening and frame it in the larger concept of societal development, how it might affect humanity, and what it might mean for the human body itself. There are a lot of amazing technologies being developed that are under the radar that have the potential to drastically change the quality of life for humanity, within decades.  Christine and I sit down to discuss everything from nanotechnology to cryogenics to finding a soulmate, all in the effort of getting the most out of your body, your health, and your life. Machines are getting smarter, and we are getting more informed on the decisions we are making that affect our body. Because of it, some of the breakthroughs are absolutely amazing.  And listening in, you might just hear some speculations that may startle you - in a fantastic way. For instance, Christine paints a potential picture of what the future might hold that involves: ·       nanobots that make repairs to DNA on a cell-by-cell basis ·       the end of cancer - and all disease ·       a 10,000 year life span ·       finding a life partner through manipulation of chemical processes in the brain For complete shownotes and more, please head over to www.optimizedgeek.com/christinepeterson     Get Optimized!
