A lot of newcomers wonder what to work on longevity. The longevity field is young and complex, much like a solar system in its early days. Most attempts to map any aspect of it will look both like oversimplification and overengineering. But I've spent the past weeks talking with many people (scientists, investors and founders) and I've mapped, at a high level, what I (or anyone) could work on longevity: funding, talent, media, practical applications, therapeutics and infrastructure for the field. Far from being a complete guide, a post like this would’ve been super helpful a few weeks ago. So here it is for everyone else. I hope it helps.
