There are more than 50 compounds and treatments that have been reported to extend lifespan in mammals, and dozens more that seem to prevent the diseases of aging — yet few of these studies have received independent follow-up or replication.
We’re designing and funding animal lifespan studies to test the anti-aging effects of compounds that have already shown promising results. We’ll accelerate translational aging science by giving exceptional researchers the resources they need to expand their work.
Searching for drugs that extend healthy life in mammals.
Independently confirming anti-aging success stories.
Designing rodent experiments with predictive power.
Sharing our data with the public.
We need your help to make LRI’s mission a reality. Donations allow us to test more treatments in parallel, test more animal models and measures of aging-related disease, and get results faster.
