Ian has served as head of outreach and partnerships development for the UK's oldest Longevity-focused charity, the Biogerontology Research Foundation, since 2016 and has led Aging Analytics Agency's Policy and Governance Analytics division since 2019, where he developed innovative data aggregation, management and analysis methods for the knowledge base that would become Longevity.International. Franco Cortese (Director, Aging Analytics Agency) Franco Cortese is Director of Aging Analytics Agency, and has been a member of the company’s executive management team since its inception. He is one of the co-creators of the Longevity Industry Framework behind many of the company’s Longevity Industry analytics, benchmarking and forecasting. He is also one of five co-authors behind the proposal that led to the World Health Organization's addition of a new extension code for aging-related diseases (XT9T) during ICD-11, and the author of over a dozen scientific papers in peer-reviewed journals such as: - Scientific Reports (Nature Publishing Group), - Experimental Gerontology, Aging, - The Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences (Oxford Academic), - Sleep (Oxford Academic), - Human Gene Therapy, - Frontiers in Genetics, - Rejuvenation Research, - Oncotarget, - Translational Neurodegeneration. Dr. Milan Mušo (President, Cambridge University Longevity Society) After completing a BSc degree in Molecular Biology at the University of Manchester, Milan moved to Oxford for a DPhil degree to study how common genetic variants influence fat distribution and risk of metabolic diseases. Milan is currently a Postdoctoral Research Associate of human metabolic diseases and ageing, at the Institute of Metabolic Science, University of Cambridge. Milan has recently authored a review of the current literature surrounding the role that RNA plays in the ageing process, appropriately titled ‘RNA and ageing”. In today’s episode we discuss the function of RNA, emerging technologies that utilise the RNA to provide valuable medical information, and its links to the ageing process. Dr. Alexander Mörseburg (Treasurer, Cambridge University Longevity Society) Alexander is a computational biologist with a background in population genomics and evolutionary biology. He holds a PhD in Biological Anthropology from the University of Cambridge. His key competencies are the analysis of large-scale genomics data and the application of advanced statistical techniques such as multilevel modelling and machine learning to biological data. Alexander’s research interests lie in using computational methods to improve our understanding and treatments of metabolic and age-related diseases in close collaboration with experimental and clinical researchers. He is particularly enthusiastic about investigating the geroscience hypothesis in humans, which posits that therapeutically addressing ageing physiology directly will prevent the onset or mitigate the severity of many chronic diseases. Robert D.Young (Director, GRG Supercentenarian Research And Database Division) Robert D.Young is GWR’s lead consultant for gerontology – the study of various aspects of ageing. He has maintained lists of the world’s oldest people for the Gerontology Research Group (GRG) since 1999, and has worked with the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research and the International Database on Longevity. Robert became Director of the Supercentenarian Research Database Division for the GRG in 2015. He is also the author of African-American Longevity Advantage: Myth or Reality? Ilia Stambler (Founder, International Longevity Alliance) Ilia Stambler, PhD, is Chief Science Officer of “Vetek” (Seniority) – the Movement for Longevity and Quality of Life (Israel). He received his PhD at the Department of Science, Technology and Society, Bar Ilan University, Israel. His research has focused on the historical and social implications of aging and life extension research. He is also involved in mathematical modeling of aging and aging-related diseases. He is the author of the books A History of Life-extensionism in the Twentieth Century and Longevity Promotion: Multidisciplinary Perspectives. He is actively involved in advocacy for aging and longevity research, serving as the chairman of the Israeli Longevity Alliance, executive committee member of the International Society on Aging and Disease and International Longevity Alliance, fellow and policy director at the Global Healthspan Policy Institute. His papers have appeared in Progress in Neurobiology, Aging and Disease, Cancer Detection and Prevention, Rejuvenation Research, Current Aging Science, Global Aging, Mechanisms of Ageing and Development, Frontiers in Genetics, Geroscience, Encyclopedia of Gerontology and Population Aging, Encyclopedia of Biomedical Gerontology, and other scientific journals and books. Johnny Adams (CEO, Aging Intervention Foundation) John M. “Johnny” Adams, MBA has a strong commitment to slow and reverse age related decline. He has been active since the 1970s, building skills and accomplishments. Johnny has a good understanding of the science of aging, and possesses many skills and problem solving abilities to support and extend the work of scientists so they can focus on science and create solutions. He is CEO and Executive Director of the Bourhenne Medical Research Foundation (Aging Intervention Foundation) in Newport Beach, California. They are involved in multiple projects to pursue their goal with a renowned Scientific Advisory Board. Johnny has been an active member of the Gerontology Research Group since 2000, and became Executive Director after the passing of its founder, L. Stephen Coles MD, PhD in 2014. The group’s Supercentenarian Research and Database Division is the foremost authority on the world’s oldest humans, and the email discussion forum connects aging researchers and solutions creators with late breaking news, facts, ideas, collaborators, key pieces of the puzzle, and other valuable information.
