DEADLINE: Nature Awards Healthspan Accelerator

Are you a researcher with aspirations to translate your life science discovery into real world practice to improve the human healthspan?

Do you need guidance to advance from early discovery to commercial launch, with support from leading translation experts and venture builders? 

Four carefully chosen applicants will each be awarded a $10,000 Nature Award and gain entry to the residential accelerator programme. Here, you’ll engage with eminent scientist–entrepreneurs and explore opportunities for commercial development, all aimed at advancing your cutting-edge science into viable health innovations. We are especially interested in passionate scientists early in their career leading the work alongside a seasoned PI.

 In 2025, the accelerator will focus on four key areas:

• regulating host metabolism and the rate of aging
• better identifying and mediating aging cells
• reducing risk factors and slowing neurodegeneration
• attenuating age-associated inflammation
