our mission

Knowledge-based empowerment for a better future 

Society for Longevity Science e.V. - Mission: STAYING ALIVE strives to make sound scientific knowledge about longevity research accessible and to promote dialog about the ethical, economic and societal implications of this research. Our mission is to empower individuals as well as corporations, institutions and civil society organizations to make informed decisions and prepare for the profound changes that will result from advances in life extension.

The concept of knowledge-based empowerment is at the heart of our work. By making scientific findings and technological breakthroughs understandable and accessible, we offer people the opportunity to make self-determined decisions that affect their health and their lives. At the same time, we support companies and institutions in recognizing the opportunities and challenges of longevity research and adapting their strategies accordingly.
