Aubrey DeGrey

Dr. Aubrey de Grey is a biomedical gerontologist whose work challenges conventional thinking about aging and longevity. He is best known for his Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence (SENS), which treats aging as an engineering problem with seven types of damage that can be repaired. Author of influential books including ‘Ending Aging’ and ‘The Mitochondrial Free Radical Theory of Aging,’ Aubrey holds a PhD in biology from Cambridge. He co-founded SENS Research Foundation in 2009, serving as Chief Science Officer until 2021. As Editor-in-Chief of Rejuvenation Research and former VP at AgeX Therapeutics, he has been instrumental in advancing regenerative medicine. A prolific TED speaker giving 40-50 talks annually, Aubrey advocates that some people alive today won’t die from age-related causes. His work has inspired significant investment in longevity research worldwide. Note: In 2021, following allegations and independent investigation, he was removed from SENS Foundation.
