Редактирование: Life extensionist

A '''life extensionist''' is a term slightly distinct from [[transhumanist]] in that it indicates an individual primarily interested in slowing aging and extending life spans through relatively conventional means. This means to the implicit exclusion of other more radical technologies involved in [[life extension]] such as [[cyborgisation]], [[mind uploading]], and similar technological areas.

Life extensionists will typically not be [[singularitarian]]s. If they are, they would typically identify instead as transhumanists.

[[Longevism]] is a broader philosophical position advocated by [[transhumanist]]s and well as life extensionists.

A scientist working in the field of life extension may be a [[biogerontologist]] if they are studying the biological process of aging.
