Life Biosciences was co-founded in 2017 by Dr. Sinclair, a professor in the Department of Genetics at Harvard Medical School, and Edwards, who developed its innovative structure as Chapter Two in his life, after a highly successful career as a global institutional investor, working across all asset classes. In addition to its Daughter company business model, the company invests in other groundbreaking firms, providing them with the resources to maximize their potential.

There are six Daughter companies working independently and together within the Life Biosciences research environment. The company provides Daughter companies with the resources required to maximize human potential, including the recently acquired Lua’s AI-driven data and communications platform, experienced drug development expertise and its network of laboratories and offices on four continents.

Co-founded in 2017 by David Sinclair, PhD, AO, and Tristan Edwards, Life Biosciences is the first and largest company addressing the eight pathways of age-related decline (ARD) as a systemic breakdown of the body, not a series of isolated symptoms and conditions.

The company provides Daughter companies with the full resources of LifeLab, its 24,000 square-foot, state-of-the-art research facility that includes a vivarium, robotics, and drug screening capabilities; and an emerging AI platform being developed by the company’s Lua subsidiary.
