We’re proud to share that the NYC-Vita team at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai has been named a Semifinalist and one of the Top 40 Milestone 1 Awardees in the global #XPRIZEHealthspan competition — recognized for advancing one of the most feasible and safe therapeutic approaches to aging well.
Selected from a highly competitive international field, our team stood out for its whole-body strategy to help restore immune function, muscle strength, and cognitive performance in older adults — with the next milestone being a clinical trial conducted in New York City.
Led by Dr. @MiriamMerad, and co-led by senior investigators Dr. @zahifayed, Dr. @FannyElahi and @DrTomMarron, this work is helping to lay the foundation for a comprehensive aging program at Mount Sinai.
Thank you to @xprize for supporting this mission — and to our growing network of partners working with us to turn science into practical solutions for healthier, fuller lives.
