Slow down ageing in animals -- lessons from mice and monkeys -- clues to ageing process in humans. Negligible senescence and the Rockfish Project. How to reverse grey hair. How to rejuvenate wrinkled skin and give someone a total permanent face lift -- using treatments that work in rodents but are not yet working in humans. Impact of longer life expectancy calculations on pension funds, government debt and future liabilities, society, patterns of employment, job market, demand for social care and health care. Why most actuarial forecasts for life expectancy are wrong. Impact on health promotion, disease prevention, wellness and performance-based medicine. Enhancing performance -- whether sexual performance, mental performance (students or older people with Alzheimer's disease / memory impairment / loss).
