Dr. Aubrey de Grey: Biomedical Gerontologist



V15N5c - Guest
Dr. Aubrey de Grey is a biomedical gerontologist based in Cambridge, UK and Mountain View, California. He received his BA and PhD from the University of Cambridge in 1985 and 2000 respectively.

Dr. de Grey is the Chief Science Officer of SENS Research Foundation and Editor-in-Chief of Rejuvenation Research, the world’s highest-impact peer-reviewed journal focused on intervention in aging.

Dr. de Grey’s research interests encompass the characterization of all the accumulating and eventually pathogenic molecular and cellular side-effects of metabolism that constitute mammalian aging and the design of interventions to repair and/or obviate them. His comprehensive plan for such repair, termed Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence (SENS), breaks aging down into seven major classes of damage and identifies detailed approaches to addressing each one.
