Title:Using DNA Methylation & Biological Noise to Regenerate Cells and Usher in Medicine 3.0
This session will offer an exploration of the dynamic relationship between DNA methylation tests, cell regeneration, and the evolving landscape of Medicine 3.0, providing valuable insights for advancing longevity research and healthcare practices. We are living in an exciting time. We’re now able to use epigenetic tests to identify biomarkers for diseases and a person’s biological age across the key functions and organs in the body. This breakthrough will make an important contribution to helping people live better longer.
DNA methylation, a crucial epigenetic mechanism, serves as a vital indicator of cellular aging and proclivity toward disease. In this talk, we examine the transformative potential of DNA methylation tests to assess biological age, predict health outcomes, and shape personalized interventions and action plans.
Cell regeneration emerges as a pivotal focus, elucidating mechanisms underlying cellular rejuvenation and their implications for extending healthspan. From innovative stem cell therapies to regenerative medicine interventions, attendees gain insights into leveraging the body's regenerative capacities to combat age-related decline and chronic diseases effectively.
The session will delve into the principles of Medicine 3.0, advocating for a proactive, personalized, and preventative healthcare approach. Through case studies and unreleased data, we explore how DNA methylation testing and cell regeneration intersect with Medicine 3.0, catalyzing a shift towards optimizing wellness and longevity.
Drawing on interdisciplinary perspectives from genetics, bioinformatics, and longevity science, this session fosters dialogue among researchers, clinicians, policymakers, and industry leaders. It navigates the scientific, and practical dimensions of harnessing DNA methylation tests, cell regeneration, and Medicine 3.0 to promote healthier, more resilient societies that help people live longer, healthier lives.
Alina has a passion for biotech and healthcare, with a personal mission to empower accessible healthcare for all. Alina was inspired to focus on Aging & Regeneration while working as a researcher at The Conboy Laboratory at UC Berkeley. Prior to co-founding Generation Lab, Alina was founder and CEO of startup NovaXS, dedicated to helping patients with injectable medication get better, more pain-free care. After a successful exit, she partnered with mentor Dr. Irina Conboy and Michael Suswal to start Generation Lab.
A Ph.D. candidate at Harvard Medical School, Alina was featured on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list in 2023 and is an alum of tech accelerators Y Combinator and TechStars. She is currently based in San Francisco.
Michael Suswal
Co-founder and COO
Biography: A serial entrepreneur, Michael had a long-time interest in longevity that was revived when he met now co-founder Alina Rui Su at a TechStars event in 2022. Prior to co-founding Generation Lab, Michael was co-founder and COO of Standard AI, a computer vision startup that transformed how retailers leverage AI for checkout and inventory tracking. At Standard, he forged retail partnerships that helped turn the startup into an early unicorn.
Prior to co-founding Standard AI, Michael was a program manager for the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC), where he led a team that developed technology to help prevent fraud in high-frequency trading. Previously, Michael co-founded and worked in strategy and development roles for several other startups. He is also a Y Combinator alum.
