THE VITAE INSTITUTE WAS FORMED TO:

Endorse basic scientific research aimed both at discovering the mechanisms of aging, as well as at extending human longevity.

Educate the public about aging and life-extension research and help it identify approaches to life-extension technology that are scientifically valid.

Explore the hypothesis that an intervention in the mechanisms of aging can significantly slow or reverse the development of multiple age-associated diseases to increase longevity and health.

How can human lifespan be extended? Will the scientific investigation of the aging process contribute to medical solutions for the treatment of age-associated diseases? What scientific research may illuminate the connections between the aging process and these pathologies to extend lifespan? These are the questions we are exploring.
