Eternal life and thus conquering death may seem like the stuff of legend but it may be possible in the near future. The three techniques to achieve immortality can be listed as follows:

1.       Biogerontology

2.       Cybernetics

3.       Nanotechnology

Do your research and decide which one is good for you. Then write an essay in which you compare and contrast the techniques to prove your point. Have fun.
