#110 Cryonics, Wearables at Work & How worrying is the rise of Alpha-Gal Syndrome?
Description
This week the team are delving into the world of science-fiction that's actually reality, with news of German startup Tomorrow.Bio, Europe's first cryonics lab, based in Berlin. It offers to cryogenically “freeze” people in liquid nitrogen after they die, for as long as it takes until science can find a way to revive and rejuvenate them. "Not just science fiction: Tomorrow.Bio has preserved 20 people and 10 pets for future revival"
Next up we're back in the real world, the team look at wearables and the workplace, and how they can integrate. "Fitness Wearables Market Set To Hit $190B, but Data & Battery Life Hurdles Remain"
And finally, in Trending, Adrienne is discussing what futurologists have been talking about for a while now, which is Alpha-gal syndrome (AGS). AGS is an allergic reaction to alpha-gal, a molecule found in most mammals but not humans, which can develop after a tick bite, most commonly the lone star tick.
