Dedicated to deciphering the complexities of aging, I bring a wealth of expertise with a PhD in Aging from the Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru, and over eight years of hands-on research. Proficient in wet lab techniques, I am driven by a commitment to increase the human healthspan at Longevity India. Focused on translational science, innovation and entrepreneurship, I bridge the gap between research and real-world impact. Here's what I can offer: 1. Aging and Longevity Research - Offer insights on research trends and breakthroughs in aging, cellular senescence, and healthspan improvement. - Guide on experimental design, wet lab techniques, and troubleshooting for aging-related studies. - Help bridge gaps in understanding the translational relevance of research findings. 2. Translational Science - Mentor researchers on transitioning discoveries from lab to real-world applications. - Advise on identifying therapeutic targets, product development, and creating impactful proposals. - Share strategies for aligning basic research with clinical or commercial outcomes. 3. Innovation and Entrepreneurship - Mentor aspiring entrepreneurs on building longevity-focused biotech or health-tech startups. - Provide insights on proposal writing, funding strategies, and fostering academia-industry collaborations. - Offer feedback on product ideas with a focus on deep science and translational potential. 4. Career Mentorship and Networking - Support students and professionals in navigating academic and industry careers in longevity and biotech. - Provide advice on writing research papers, grant proposals, and fellowship applications. - Guide individuals in building networks and collaborations with academia, industry, and investors. 5. Decentralised Science Ecosytem - Alternative funding models in DeSci - Publishing and open science - Incentivised peer reviews
