The Elysium team is made up of individuals who are passionate about creating a fundamentally new approach to healthcare, one that focuses not exclusively on disease but on health.

We tackle challenges with creativity, integrity, and a willingness to collaborate. We believe that aging is not only the greatest risk factor for all major chronic conditions, but that aging research represents the most significant opportunity to improve human health today. It is our responsibility to share the benefits of aging research with as many people as possible, to effect real and meaningful change. This includes our colleagues, our families, and our friends—who were the original inspiration for Elysium.

We are solving some of the world’s most interesting and important problems, and believe no one should assume that because a problem is hard, it’s unsolvable.
