Contrary to popular belief, aging is not caused by random wear and tear but instead is caused by a discrete set of biological mechanisms that can be targeted therapeutically.
We are pursuing a platform approach to develop therapeutics that can reverse and prevent multiple age-related conditions. Our platforms are based on groundbreaking science from world-class researchers. We have exclusive licenses with leading academic institutions underpinned by strong composition-of-matter and method-of-use patents.
Life Biosciences is headquartered in Boston, MA.
