The Hevolution Foundation has established a Scientific Advisory Panel (SAP) to guide its geroscience and healthspan research programs. The SAP comprises renowned experts in aging and geroscience research, including Guido Kroemer, Andrea Maier, and Laura Niedernhofer. The SAP’s members will serve in an advisory role and provide strategic counsel and validation of progress to help the foundation in its mission to extend healthy human lifespan and better understand the processes of aging. Thomas Rando, MD, PhD, is another prominent expert in stem cell biology and the biology of aging. He is the Director of the Broad Stem Cell Research Center at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and a Professor of Neurology and Molecular, Cell and Developmental Biology at UCLA. Rando has received numerous awards and is a member of the US National Academy of Medicine and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
The Hevolution Foundation, a Saudi-based non-profit organization that promotes healthspan science research and entrepreneurship, has established a Scientific Advisory Panel (SAP) to provide strategic advice for the foundation’s research and initiatives. The panel consists of renowned experts in geroscience and aging-related research, including Brian Kennedy, PhD, who is a Distinguished Professor at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine in Singapore and Director of several health longevity programs. The SAP will offer input, guidance, and support for the foundation’s efforts to fund top healthspan research and geroscience projects around the world. The panel’s members will serve in a purely advisory capacity to help the organization enhance and validate its strategy and scientific initiatives. Felipe Sierra, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer of Hevolution Foundation and Chairman of the SAP, expressed his excitement at welcoming the SAP’s esteemed panel of scientists and their contributions towards extending healthy human lifespan and understanding the processes of aging.
