Dr. Aubrey de Grey Brings Cutting-Edge Science to RAADfest 2025: LEV Foundation Partners with Coalition for Radical Life Extension

Renowned biogerontologist Dr. Aubrey de Grey to curate specialized scientific programming at world's leading longevity conference, combining breakthrough research with practical applications.

"RAADfest is the leading longevity conference for a general audience. I'll be bringing the same high calibre of science I always do. The event promises to be momentous."

--- Dr. Aubrey de Grey, President of the LEV Foundation

LAS VEGAS, July 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. Aubrey de Grey, a biomedical gerontologist who received his BA in computer science and Ph.D. in biology from the University of Cambridge, will headline RAADfest 2025 in a collaboration between the LEV Foundation and the Coalition for Radical Life Extension. Taking place July 10-13, 2025, at the Red Rock Casino Resort and Spa in Las Vegas, this partnership marks the first time Dr. de Grey will curate scientific programming for RAADfest alongside the event's established offerings.

Dr. de Grey, founder of the SENS (Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence) research framework, brings over two decades of work in damage repair approaches to aging. His LEV Foundation recently completed studies involving 1,000 middle-aged mice, extending their lives by four months through combination therapies. This research represents progress toward what he terms "longevity escape velocity" in humans. His approach to working across organizations like the Healthspan Action Coalition and Alliance for Longevity Initiatives reflects his collaborative approach to advancing the longevity field.

"This is not just an event; it's a movement," said James Strole, Director of the Coalition for Radical Life Extension. "By joining forces with the LEV Foundation and incorporating the visionary work of Dr. Aubrey de Grey, we are taking a historic step forward in the fight against aging."

The enhanced 2025 program will feature Dr. de Grey's signature approach to presenting complex scientific concepts alongside RAADfest's traditional focus on practical applications and clinical protocols. Attendees will gain access to cutting-edge research on cellular regeneration, mitochondrial repair, senescent cell elimination, and combination therapy approaches that form the backbone of modern rejuvenation science. The event's established non-commercial platform ensures that Dr. de Grey's scientific presentations remain focused on research advancement rather than product promotion.

Dr. de Grey's participation extends beyond individual presentations to encompass strategic programming that reflects his broader vision for accelerating the entire longevity field. His collaborative approach—supporting credible radical efforts across diverse organizations rather than building competing institutions—will be evident throughout the expanded scientific track designed to serve both practicing clinicians and PhD-level researchers.

The 2025 program will include specialized sessions on Dr. de Grey's seven-category SENS framework, updates from the LEV Foundation's robust mouse rejuvenation studies, and strategic discussions about achieving the critical breakthroughs needed to trigger widespread acceptance of radical life extension research. Interactive panels will explore how damage repair approaches translate from laboratory settings to clinical applications, addressing the practical concerns of healthcare providers and individual longevity advocates.

Registration is now open for RAADfest 2025. Complete event details, speaker announcements, and registration information are available at www.raadfest.com.
