Dr Joan Mannick is one of the world’s leading rapamycin and mTOR researchers in the longevity field. Joan has a background in academic medicine and is currently CEO at her own company Tornado Therapeutics where they focus on developing the next generation of mTOR inhibitors. One of the company goals is to create a mTOR inhibitor which is better than Rapamycin. Throughout the years Joan has made important discoveries in humans when it comes to finding a connection between mTOR inhibition and improvement of the aging immune system. In this podcast we are going to talk about her research, drug development, mTOR, rapamycin, rapalogs and other interesting longevity topics.

The world's leading Rapamycin researcher Mikhail Blagosklonny has a long background in cancer research and one important discovery he made around 2000 was that Rapamycin slowed down senescent cancer cells in different ways. After that step by step his interest in the longevity field increased and he developed the very interesting hyperfunction theory of aging. He has made a huge contribution in moving the Rapamycin longevity field forward and his research papers have impacted many people. For example, the Rapamycin physician Alan Green who thanks to these papers took the decision in 2017 to start prescribing Rapamycin off label. Today Alan Green has the biggest clinical experience in the area with more than 1200 patients. A lot of other physicians have after that also taken these steps and one of those are for example physician Peter Attia.
