About

Juvenescence is a leading company in the Aging & Longevity space, dedicated to researching and developing innovative solutions to extend human lifespan and improve quality of life as we age. Our mission is to inspire and equip the world to reimagine what it means to get older, and help people live healthier, longer.

The Juvenescence team consists of highly experienced drug developers, entrepreneurs, marketers, and investors with a significant history of success in pharmaceutical drug development, synthetic biology, and tissue and cellular engineering. It was founded in 2017 by Jim MellonDr Greg Bailey and Dr Declan Doogan, and most recently appointed Dr Richard Marshall, CBE as CEO.

The company has two distinct divisions that comprise its broad portfolio of innovation – one developing therapies to modify aging and increase healthy human lifespan through prevention and by regenerating damage, and the other leveraging the company’s strong scientific foundation to develop nutritional products that are effective, safe and formulated to support a healthy lifestyle. 

Juvenescence’s core principles for its products are: 

  • Science-backed: To go above and beyond baseline requirements for nutritional products and only output science-driven, evidence-based products that have been thoroughly tested. 
  • Comprehensive Research: Conduct clinical trials with best-in-class research firms and validate our studies through accredited peer reviews – both pre- and post- product launch. 
  • Data-driven: Aim to have a feedback loop readily available to measure impact, ensuring products work to help consumers achieve their personal goals.

The company is committed to inspiring and equipping the world to, not just reimagine what it means to age, but to help people Reimagine A Lifetime and take control of their longevity now. For more information see: www.JuvLabs.com

Jim Mellon

Deputy Chairman / Co-Founder

see bio

Jim Mellon, a co-founder and Deputy Chairman of Juvenescence, was inspired by the possibilities and advances being made in the area of longevity. He travelled across the world, speaking to leading scientists and researchers, and from those conversations, he wrote the book, Juvenescence. That book and his partnership with Greg Bailey and Declan Doogan led to the concept and rare opportunity to reinvent human aging.

Jim is an investor with interests in numerous industries. After leaving Oxford University, where he studied philosophy, politics and economics, he worked in Asia and the United States in two fund management companies, GT and Thornton, before establishing his own business in 1991. This business continues today, but Jim no longer works as a fund manager and is, instead, focussed on biotech, clean food, and property, with other business interests managed by his family office, the Burnbrae Group. These interests include banking, mining and hotels.

In addition to his roles at Juvenescence, Jim is a non-executive director of Condor Gold, Portage Biotech Inc., Bradda Head Limited, Chelsea Avondale Limited, and of Agronomics Limited, and is executive Chairman of Manx Financial Group, which owns Conister Bank. Burnbrae is a substantial landlord in Germany and has interests in a diverse range of projects. Jim has written several books, including Wake Up!, Juvenescence and the recently released Moo’s Law. Jim has established the Mellon Longevity Centre at Oxford, and is also an honorary fellow of Oriel College.
