The Dog Aging Project represents a pioneering effort in the scientific community. It engages nearly 50,000 Americans in research, and drives significant advancements in aging biology. Despite its remarkable success, the project now faces uncertainty in its ongoing funding. Your voice is crucial to secure its future.
Initiated with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in 2018, this project aims to understand aging in dogs, and to ultimately help us extend healthy lifespan of both humans and pets. It has surpassed all expectations, even amidst the COVID-19 pandemic’s challenges, with substantial achievements such as:
- Creating the largest longitudinal study of aging in the world
- Publishing over 50 influential peer-reviewed papers
- Developing a free, open-access database with more than 36.5 million data points
- Initiating the first-ever randomized clinical trial for longevity
These efforts have sparked global research and inspired biotechnology companies to seek new life-extending treatments.
