Future Timeline

Hello,

I've been lurking on this forum (or the previous iteration thereof) since about 2016 or so, and I figured it was about time for me to come out of the shadows, create an account, and actively contribute. Not that I will have an awful lot to add to most discussions, but I will try my best to be a bit more of an active participant.

A bit about me:
- I'm in my early 40s
- I'm from a small Western European country, and currently live in South East Asia. I've also been fortunate enough to live in the UK, the US, Australia, and a few other places around the world. I should therefore be able to offer a bit of an international perspective
- My educational background is in biochemistry / cell biology, but I ended up in a corporate job in the healthcare industry
- As my username indicates, I have a particular interest in longevity research. I certainly can't claim to be an expert, I just try to keep an eye on new developments in this space, and I do hope to stay alive (and healthy) for a very long time, partly because the mere thought of not being able to witness the amazing innovations of the (far) future saddens me

Welcome to the forum!

Welcome to the forum Immortal Coil. I look forward in reading your posts.

Welcome to the forum!

Welcome! Great to see a new face!

Thanks all... it only took me 6 months to actually post something (just been too busy...). I'll try to make more of an effort to participate in discussions, moving forward

Welcome to the forum.

It was nice of you to come forward and introduce yourself. It confirms for me these there is at least something valid about all of these post view counts that I keep seeing. It is gratifying to know that there are real live human beings out there reading some of this stuff rather than just bots getting registered by the computer.

Also, I like that you have such an international experience. Being a military brat, I had seen much of the world by the time I turned sixteen. So following current international events and understanding "foreign" cultures is a great passion of mine.

Hi

Nice to meet you.
