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.
Sirtris Pharmaceuticals, Inc. was a biotechnology company based in Cambridge, MA that developed therapies for type 2 diabetes, cancer, and other diseases. Conceived in 2004 by Harvard University biologist David Sinclair and Andrew Perlman, [1] and founded that year by Sinclair and Perlman, along with Christoph Westphal, Richard Aldrich, Richard Pops, and Paul Schimmel, [2] the company was ...
[53] [57] [58] [59] In 2004, Harvard University professor David Sinclair co-founded Sirtris Pharmaceuticals, the initial product of which was a resveratrol formulation. [60] [61] [62] Sirtris was purchased and made a subsidiary of GlaxoSmithKline in 2008 for $720 million and shut down in 2013, without successful drug development. [63] [64]
In 1991 his lab started to study genes involved in aging. [5] In 1993, Cynthia Kenyon 's lab at UCSF discovered that a single-gene mutation in ( Daf-2 ) could double the lifespan of C. elegans . That same year, David Sinclair joined the Guarente lab, and they developed the hypothesis that caloric restriction slows aging by activation of ...
The 10,000 steps per day rule isn’t based in science. Here’s what experts have to say about how much you should actually walk per day for maximum benefits.
A 2011 FDA study found that combining text with audio increased recall and understanding. But the agency leaves it to companies to decide whether to display a few keywords or a full transcript.
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 ...
The study pinpoints areas where consumers are disappointed most. J.D. Power said that in the 2024 analysis, the factors with the most significant year-over-year declines in customer satisfaction were:
