BUFFALO, NY- December 19, 2024 – We are pleased to announce that Dr. Marco Demaria, a leading expert in aging and cellular senescence, will join Aging (Aging-US) as Editor-in-Chief, starting January 1, 2025. Dr. Demaria will work alongside an esteemed Editorial Board.

Dr. Demaria has an impressive background in aging research. He earned his PhD in Molecular Medicine from the University of Torino, Italy. In 2010, he joined the laboratory of Aging Founding Editor, the late Dr. Judith Campisi, at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging. There he developed cellular and animal models for studying cellular aging, also known as cellular senescence, and its role in tissue repair, cancer, and aging.

Currently, Dr. Demaria leads DemariaLab, whose mission is “to extend human healthspan by pioneering discoveries in molecular and cellular mechanisms that regulate the aging process.” His groundbreaking research has significantly advanced our understanding of cellular senescence and its role in aging and age-related diseases. Dr. Demaria aims to develop new therapeutic approaches to create more effective treatments that mitigate the diseases and extend the healthspan. His work specifically focuses on interfering with the mechanisms of cellular senescence using genetic, pharmacological, and nutraceutical strategies.

“My research is focused on understanding the molecular basis of age-related dysfunctions and disorders, and to identify new molecular and cellular targets to improve health and longevity.” - Marco Demaria

He is also a Full Professor at the European Research Institute for the Biology of Ageing (ERIBA), Director of the Mechanisms of Health, Ageing and Disease (MoHAD) at the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG), President of the International Cell Senescence Association (ICSA), and Co-Founder of Cleara Biotech. Dr. Demaria also brings valuable editorial experience from his former positions as Editor-in-Chief of npj Aging and Editorial Board member of Aging Cell.

All the above, combined with Dr. Demaria’s academic contributions, commitment, and expertise, align perfectly with Aging’s mission to understand the mechanisms surrounding aging and age-related diseases, including cancer as the main cause of death in the modern aged population.
