James Strole,

Director

James Strole is a futurist dedicated to helping bring about a world in which vibrant unlimited human lifespans are the norm. He is Executive Director of the Coalition for Radical Life Extension, which is the producer of RAADfest, the largest global longevity event for a general audience. James is also the Director of People Unlimited, an international organization that supports people pursuing unlimited lifespans. Co-author of the book Just Getting Started: Fifty Years of Living Forever, James is a visionary anti-death activist and community builder who has spoken and written on radical life extension and physical immortality for over five decades.

James has dedicated his life to challenging death-oriented beliefs and practices and has coached thousands of people in living an ageless lifestyle to achieve healthier, fuller, more satisfying lives. He has appeared on numerous TV shows both domestically and abroad and has spoken to audiences in 26 countries on four continents.

As an emotional and spiritual platform for immortal living, James teaches the concept of the immortal lineage, an experience of abundance and unbridled enjoyment of life. This goes beyond positive thinking to a new strength and resilience that is innate in the human body. James says: “We were all born into a mortal world and have operated from that mortal consciousness that rejects immortality. But there is also within us an immortal seed for us to tap into that calls us out of survival into a future of creativity and unlimited life.”

    Dr. Bill Andrews

    CEO, Sierra Sciences

    Dr. Bill Andrews is the Founder and CEO of Sierra Sciences, a company focused on finding ways to extend human lifespan and health span through telomere maintenance. Telomeres are found at the tips of our chromosomes and have been shown, in thousands of scientific peer-reviewed studies, to be the clock of aging in humans. When telomeres get shorter, we get older, and our health declines.

    Bill has been a medical researcher in biotech since 1981, focusing on cancer, heart disease, and inflammation research, though his passion has always been aging. In the early-to-mid 1990s, while at Geron Corporation, Bill led the research to discover both the RNA and protein components of the human enzyme called telomerase. This enzyme is responsible for preventing telomeres from shortening in human reproductive cells, and this is why our children are born younger than we are even though they come from our old cells. Inducing this enzyme to lengthen telomeres in all our cells, not just our reproductive cells, to reverse aging and declining health due to aging, is the principal goal of Sierra Sciences.

  • Dr. Sandra Kaufmann, of the Kaufmann Protocol, is one of People Unlimited's Scientific Advisory Board members

    Dr. Sandra Kaufmann

    Kaufmann AntiAging Institute, CEO

    She is the author and creator of the Kaufmann Protocol, a systematic explanation of why we age on a cellular basis coupled with an organized system to delay the aging process. This theory was introduced in the book The Kaufmann Protocol: Why we Age and How to Stop it which has been recognized by many longevity leaders as the go-to tome for understanding the aging process.

    In addition, she has developed the Kaufmann Rating system, a numerical tool that evaluates molecular agents based on available scientific evidence. This process, the only one of its kind, allows longevity seekers a scientifically-based methodology to determine which longevity protocol best fits their lifestyle and health issues.

    Thus, she is well respected in the longevity community for presenting viable and scientifically based aging solutions that are available to everyone. She appears on weekly podcasts around the world, sits on longevity boards, and has spoken at innumerable health and biohacking seminars.
