First Methuselah Mouse Rejuvenation Prize Awarded

Fight Aging!

Do you want to live a longer life in good health? Simple practices can make some difference, such as exercise or calorie restriction. But over the long haul all that really matters is progress in medicine: building new classes of therapy to repair and reverse the known root causes of aging. The sooner these treatments arrive, the more lives will be saved. Find out how to help »

The Methuselah Foundation is happy to report that they have awarded the first Rejuvenation Prize to Stephen Spindler, who led "the first experiment to achieve rejuvenation in middle-aged mice, making them biologically younger while extending their lifespans." The Methuselah Foundation prize fund is supported by public donations - by people like you and I who wish to make a tangible difference to the future of medicine, health and longevity. Donors include the "X PRIZE Foundation, Foresight Institute, the Life Extension Foundation, Dr. William Haseltine -- Founder of Human Genome Sciences and Dr. Raymond Kurzweil -- noted futurist and entrepreneur." I encourage you all to step up to the plate and make a donation that will help to invigorate serious anti-aging research!
