Hi everyone! We have results!

2 weeks into the A2 administration and we have ERG readings with excitation in the eye at 950nm 🙂 This is really exciting news. We’re hoping that by the next few weeks, we will move even further into the NIR.

I’ll attach a sampling of the data here and discuss what we are seeing. I realize that the info is pretty noisy, but a lot of that has to do with the device being so sensitive that it reads even the slightest movement of the eye as well as the flashes of the LEDs. We are working on setting up an appointment with an ophthalmologist by the end of the study so that we can get at least a few nice, professional looking readings.

After what became a month of extra waiting, the vitamin A2 finally arrived. We promptly verified it and it has been sent to the test subjects.

Starting today, the control resumes taking vitamin A1. Meanwhile our test subjects will be taking 1.6mg of vitamin A2 for the next 25 days. Since the amounts are so small, the A2 (a viscous yellow liquid at room temperature) will be diluted into oil so that a precise measurement can be made. Since it is so susceptible to degradation at room temperature, the A2 is kept in the freezer in aliquots so that only the necessary amount is exposed to room temperature.

The other day, the interview between Rich Lee and Zoltan Istvan went up on the Psychology Today website.

It’s an interesting read. Zoltan is known for The Transhumanist Wager, a book which was written to challenge “virtually everyone” on the key talking points of Transhumanism. Rich Lee is part of the Grinder community, has been in the news multiple times for his cool body hacks, and passionately outlines the different ways that people approach and view biohacking.

A few weeks, I talked with Ryan Bethencourt about crowdfunding science, DIYbio, and self experimentation.

If you are have read through this site, it’s probably nothing new, but it’s still a good read and goes into how we got this thing going, and what some long term plans are.

Yeah, I know, it’s been a little quiet around here. That’s because slowly going night blind isn’t that exciting or photogenic. The VitaminA2 is ordered but that’s about it.

So what have we been doing in the meanwhile?

Well, the group is restructuring and moving down to California where we can set up a workspace. Also, we have been lucky to get a few of the biohacking community to crowdsource the funds for the peachy printer beta 🙂 It’s so cute! We’ll let you know when it gets moving. There are also a few things in the background that we can’t talk about right now, but when it breaks, I’ll post it up here.
