Vitalism is a growing movement founded by Adam Gries and Nathan Cheng that advocates for defeating death and making unlimited human lifespan humanity's top priority. The movement has gained traction among biotech entrepreneurs, scientists, and policymakers, successfully influencing state legislation in Montana and New Hampshire to expand access to experimental treatments. Vitalists are working to recruit wealthy individuals, academics, and government officials, with some members now holding positions at ARPA-H and HHS. The movement hosts events like Vitalist Bay and certifies aligned biotech companies, though many supporters hesitate to publicly identify as Vitalists due to concerns about the label's cult-like perception. Critics warn that the push for deregulation poses ethical risks and that the movement's goal of eliminating death challenges fundamental aspects of human culture and meaning.
