Evandro Fei Fang is a molecular gerontologist and is currently Associate Professor at the Department of Clinical Molecular Biology, University of Oslo and the Akershus University Hospital, Norway. He has an extensive track record of mechanistic studies on human aging and mitophagy, and his main research interests currently center on exploring the basic molecular mechanisms of human ageing and age-related diseases, with a final goal to develop interventional strategies to improve people's lifespan and healthspan. He is currently pursuing the development of novel anti-ageing compounds using artificial intelligence combined with a cross-species wet-lab validation. Dr. Fang is also co-founder of the Norwegian Centre on Healthy Ageing (NO-Age) and the Norwegian anti-Alzheimer's disease (NO-AD) networks.Linda Bergersen is Professor and Dean of Research at the Faculty of Dentistry, University of Oslo, Norway, and also serves as Professor of Neurobiology of Aging at the Center of Healthy Aging (CEHA), University of Copenhagen, Denmark. She is also a former athlete who specializes in understanding the link between physical exercise and prevention of neurodegenerative disease. Dr. Bergersen has pioneered the study of how exercise can improve brain health and has expanded from there into further aging fields. She has received a number of awards and fellowships for her research and is also co-founder of the Norwegian Centre for Healthy Ageing (NO-Age).Brian Christopher Gilmour is currently a PhD candidate in medicine at the University of Oslo, Norway. Aiming to develop a research career in aging, he is well-acquainted with the functions of the immune system and looking to further develop the relation between the immune system and human aging. He works closely with the Norwegian Centre for Healthy Ageing (NO-Age).
