Big Think | The age-impacting benefit of #caloricrestriction @bigthink | Uploaded 5 months ago | Updated 6 hours ago
Morgan Levine is a trailblazing biogerontologist whose research centers on the biological mechanisms of aging and the development of interventions to extend human healthspan. With a Ph.D. in Pathobiology, Levine's work bridges molecular biology, systems biology, and epidemiology to construct detailed models of aging at the cellular and organismal level.
Levine is well-known for her contributions to the development of biomarkers that can predict biological age—measures that are more indicative of an individual's health than chronological age. These biomarkers help identify potential risk factors for age-related diseases long before clinical symptoms emerge.
Currently, Levine holds a faculty position at a major university, where she continues her research while also teaching courses on the biology of aging and lifespan theory. She has published extensively in peer-reviewed journals and collaborates with both academic institutions and private sector companies aiming to develop anti-aging therapies. Additionally, Levine's expertise is frequently sought after at international conferences focused on aging and longevity, making her a prominent voice in the field of gerontology.
