Biohacking Team wins prizes in medical innovation

Biohacking to Improve Everyone's Health, the team of Biohackers intending to compete in XPRIZE Healthspan, have won some early prizes in the 2024 MEDICAL AFFAIRS INNOVATION OLYMPICS #MAIO2024. The MAIO is organised by The Medical Affairs Professional Society and sponsored by a number of leading biotech companies including Amadea Pharma.





Of all of the biotech groups proposing ideas the Biohacking Team won the "high jump" the prize for the most lofty idea. The team also got the overall bronze award in Patient Centricity.

John Hemming, leader of the Biohacking Team said, "I am pleased that the MAIO recognised our proposal for improving gene expression as being the most 'idealistic, lofty concept with a vision' of the varied ideas being presented at the contest. Our challenge, of course, is to refine the proposal and demonstrate that it broadly has beneficial effects in extending healthspan."

These are the main two presentations at the MAIO 2024.

Six months for recording a court hearing - Norman Scarth

The link is in Russian about the imprisonment of Norman Scarth who is actually 85. He has a complex history including a court hearing which found that he used a chainsaw to fight off bailiffs when he was 75. [a court judgment which is disputed see comments] However, that does not justify imprisoning him for 6 months for recording a court hearing (see the link and ask google to translate it if your Russian is not up to it). It has got into the Argyll News Because he has been held such that people cannot get to him to sign paperwork an application for a writ of Habeas Corpus was made today. This has been adjourned until next week. The English judicial system is really not good at responding to major abuses of human rights by the judicial system.
