Dr. Matt Kaeberlein Director

Dr. Kaeberlein graduated with a B.S. in Biochemistry and a B.A. in Mathematics from Western Washington University in 1997. He earned his Ph.D. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2002, and performed his post-doctoral studies in the laboratory of Dr. Stanley Fields in the Department of Genome Sciences at the University of Washington. Dr. Kaeberlein was appointed to his current position as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Pathology at the University of Washington in 2006 and is the incoming Associate Director of the University of Washington Nathan Shock Center of Excellence in the Basic Biology of Aging.

Research in the Kaeberlein Lab is centered on understanding the genetic and environmental factors that control aging using yeast, nematodes, and mice as model systems.  His group has contributed to seminal discoveries in this area, including defining the importance of sirtuins in aging, the role of TOR signaling in the response to dietary restriction, and the identification of the hypoxic response as a new longevity pathway.  Dr. Kaeberlein has coauthored more than 70 publications in top scientific journals and books, and he has been recognized with several prestigious awards including selection as an Alzheimer’s Association New Investigator, an Ellison Medical Foundation New Scholar in Aging Award, and a Breakthroughs in Gerontology Award from the Glenn Foundation and the American Federation for Aging Research.  In 2009, Dr. Kaeberlein was appointed as a Distinguished Visiting Professor at Guangdong Medical College in Dongguan, China.

Dr. João Pedro de Magalhães Director

Dr de Magalhaes leads the Integrative Genomics of Ageing Group at the University of Liverpool. His group combines experimental and computational approaches to study the genetic, cellular and molecular mechanisms of aging. He was appointed Lecturer in Biological Sciences at the University of Liverpool in 2008. Before his current appointment he was a post-doctoral fellow at Harvard Medical School with genomics pioneer George Church. He obtained his PhD in 2004 from the University of Namur in Belgium where he worked in the Ageing and Stress Group led by Dr. Olivier Toussaint.
