Supporting aging research news and education
The Longevity Literacy Project is an initiative that allows companies and organizations to support our newsmaking and educational activities and help the drive to end age-related diseases. Supporting companies have a particular focus in one area related to the field, such as biomarkers, finance and cryptocurrency, or investment, and they sponsor the creation of content about their chosen areas of interest.
Articles that are part of the Longevity Literacy Project are marked with the project banner and their company logo. If you are interested in sponsoring articles, please feel free to get in touch with us.
