Transhumanism is a movement or the philosophy that we can and should develop to higher levels, both physically, mentally and socially using rational methods.

A TED talk by a transhumanist about some elements of transhumanism.
It encourages research into such areas as life extension, cryonics, nanotechnology, physical and mental enhancements, uploading human consciousness into computers and megascale engineering.
