Or are we on the brink of a revolution that could add decades of healthy, vibrant years to our lives? We're all drowning in the hype: biohacking bros, miracle supplements, and tech billionaires chasing immortality. It's easy to be skeptical. But behind the noise, real science is happening. A fundamental shift is underway in how we think about aging—not as an inevitability, but as a condition that can be understood, managed, and even treated. So, how do we separate the science from the science fiction? Join us for an evening where we cut through the noise. "Longevity Medicine: Beyond the Buzz" brings together the leading minds and the boldest innovators who are turning the dream of a longer healthspan into a clinical reality. First, a no-holds-barred panel discussion with world-class clinicians and researchers. We'll tackle the tough questions: What are the most promising scientific pathways right now? How do we move from theory to practice in the clinic? And critically, how do we ensure these breakthroughs create a healthier future for everyone, not just the privileged few? Then, see the future in action. Get a front-row seat as a curated group of visionary startups present their groundbreaking solutions. These aren't just ideas on a whiteboard; they are the tools and technologies being built today to help us all live healthier, longer. Apply to Pitch right here on the MedStartr Platform with that ticket type below. If you're a clinician, an investor, a founder, or simply someone who believes we can do better than just accepting the decline of aging, this is your event. Let's get past the buzz and get down to the business of building a longer, healthier future. Together. Our panel and pitch contest judges are leaders in the space who have built Longevity innovations, written books about them and are among the most expert in the space. Come ready to listen, learn, and see some of the best new companies building Longevity solutions.

Quantified Self Show&Tell and Book Launch
Tue, Oct 13, 10:30 PM**TO REGISTER, GO TO LUMA: [https://luma.com/y90ai111](https://luma.com/y90ai111)** **Please do not RSVP or join the waitlist on Meetup.** Meetup registration is closed for this event. Tickets and the head count are on Luma only. **Quantified Self is back in New York.** It's been a while. Our last Show&Tell was in March 2017. Almost ten years. It's time to bring the community back together. We're doing a special evening of self-tracking Show&Tell talks, tool demos, and the launch of Gary Wolf's new book, *[The Quantified Self: Learning to Observe](https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/gary-wolf/the-quantified-self/9781523527946/)* (Workman, on sale Oct 6). Come reconnect with old friends, meet new people, see what our community is building, and hear what everyone's been tracking. **When:** Tuesday, October 13, 6:30–8:30 PM **Where:** Civic Hall, 124 E 14th St, New York, NY 10003 (Union Square) **Tickets (on Luma):** $15 per person, or $48 including a copy of the book. Space is limited to 60, and spots fill up fast, so please register on Luma as soon as you can. **6:30–7:00 pm · Social gathering & demos** We'll start with drinks, demos, and time to reconnect. If you're building something useful for self-trackers, you're welcome to demo at a table before and after the program. Interested in demoing? [Apply here.](https://forms.gle/3VGc5bQHc9CQKQkf8) **7:00–8:15 pm · Welcome, the QS book, and Show&Tell talks** A quick welcome, a few words from Dr. Jay Varma on [Civic Health](https://www.civichall.org/civic-health), and from Gary Wolf on the new book and where the movement goes from here. Then our main event: a few Show&Tell talks from people running their own self-tracking experiments. Each talk runs about 10–15 minutes. **8:15–8:30 pm · Social & demos** Talk to the speakers, ask people what they're tracking, and hang out. **How a Show&Tell works** "What did you do? How did you do it? What did you learn?" These 3 questions are the format for our QS Show&Tell talks. A talk is a first-person account of a self-tracking project: someone tracked something about themselves — sleep, mood, diet, symptoms, focus, anything — and shows what happened. These are not product pitches or research presentations. How you did it usually teaches the room more than what you found out, and it's often what leads to new questions and ideas. Unfinished projects and unclear results are welcome. Questions from the room follow each talk. **Give a talk** Have a project to share? A few talk slots are open. [Fill out this form.](https://forms.gle/gG5bDF7TDaRu9iPb8) New to Quantified Self?
