Hi, I’m Francesco

I’m a Scientist at NeuroAge Therapeutics, where I help to develop therapies that reverse brain aging and treat age-related brain diseases.

Before, I was a Biology of Aging PhD Student in the Campisi Lab at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging. There, I worked on cellular senescence, an established hallmark of aging. I developed a high-throughput method to measure senescence burden, and identified sub-populations of senescent cells with different sensitivity to senolytic treatment.

I’m deeply interested in aging/longevity biotech. My goal within the next few years is to directly contribute to the R&D and operations that will add healthy years to everyone’s life by bringing a longevity drug to the market.
