A review for Boston Magazine called Sinclair "one of science's most controversial figures" and said many in the scientific community were skeptical of claims he made about human longevity. University of Alabama biology professor Steven N. Austad said, "David is a good friend, but I do think he's been guilty of making excessive claims."
David Andrew Sinclair AO (born June 26, 1969) is an Australian-American biologist and academic known for his research on aging and epigenetics. Sinclair is a professor of genetics at Harvard Medical School and the founding director of the Paul F. Glenn Laboratories for the Biological Mechanisms of Aging at Harvard.
A 2009 review of longevity research noted: "Extrapolation from worms to mammals is risky at best, and it cannot be assumed that interventions will result in comparable life extension factors. Longevity gains from dietary restriction, or from mutations studied previously, yield smaller benefits to Drosophila than to nematodes, and smaller still ...
Savannah Rep's most recent production, 'The Lifespan of a Fact,' based upon the real-life struggle between an earnest fact-checker and celebrated essayist, confronts the nature of truth.
Guarente's rivalry with Sinclair, which began in 2002 when Sinclair challenged Guarante's description of how sir2 might be involved in aging at a scientific meeting at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, was the subject of an article in Science in 2004. [20] In 2014 Guarente co-founded the dietary supplement company Elysium Health. [13] [21]
David Sinclair and Rachel Drake shattered records in winning the men's and women's titles in the 62nd annual JFK 50 Mile ultramarathon on Saturday. Sinclair, 32, of South Burlington, Vermont, took ...
In January, a team led by David Sinclair shows in a 13-year-long international study how DNA breaks or epigenetic damage are a major driver of epigenetic change, and how the loss of epigenetic information is a cause of aging in mammals. It concluded that the loss of epigenetic information can drive aging independently of changes to the genetic ...
WASHINGTON/SINGAPORE/TAIPEI (Reuters) -The White House is seeking to renegotiate U.S. CHIPS and Science Act awards and has signaled delays to some upcoming semiconductor disbursements, two sources ...
