The Accelerating Future People Database
is an attempt to index information relating to the community of people developing and directing advances in technologies. Created in September of 2007, the database currently offers over 100 pages, combining at-a-glace biographical details with video, audio, and links.
Learn more about people involved in specific areas of research including life extension, nanotechnology, cryonics, artificial intelligence, aerospace and existential risk analysis.
Search by organizational affiliation, such as Alcor, Foresight Nanotech Institute, the Singularity Institute for Artificial Intelligence or the Lifeboat Foundation.
Read transcripts of recent conferences AGI-08 and Aging-08 on Future Current. And if you would like to discuss this subject matter with the online community, visit the Accelerating Future Forums.
