Longevity escape velocity
Topic
Longevity escape velocity (LEV) is a hypothetical situation in the life extension movement where remaining life expectancy is extended at a rate faster than time passes. When this threshold is reached, medical advances add more than one year of life expectancy for every year that goes by, theoretically allowing individuals to live indefinitely.
