Who We AreKronos Longevity Research Institute (KLRI) is a not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) organization that conducts state-of-the-art clinical translational research on the prevention of age-related diseases and the extension of healthier human life. KLRI tests new strategies to detect and prevent chronic diseases associated with aging and investigates the effects of innovative interventions to slow the aging process and improve health outcomes for older persons. In addition, KLRI helps the medical and lay communities understand important aging issues. KLRI research findings support a healthier quality of life and a robust lifestyle in our senior years.Our Mission KLRI is dedicated to understanding the human aging process and preventing age-related disease. KLRI conducts and fosters research that moves basic discoveries into clinical practice and communicates our research results to scientific and healthcare professionals and to the public so that people may enjoy longer and healthier lives. What Is Translational Research? Translational research takes promising findings from the basic research laboratory and carries them forward into the clinical arena. It is the link between basic research (experiments done with animals or cultured cells, genes, etc.) and improved clinical care. It requires controlled studies of living human subjects. KLRI is performing research to extend our healthy years by improving muscle strength, understanding the role of various nutritional components in our diets, and achieving a better grasp of human aging physiology. There are many anti-aging remedies and recommendations on the market today. However, most lack scientific evidence, while having potential side effects. We need reputable scientific organizations to spearhead research to further our understanding of treatments developed to increase our healthy years. KLRI differs from most research institutions because we have a wide range of scientific expertise and we focus on the overall effects of aging, rather than disease cures. Safety is also an important element to KLRI, as all studies are carefully performed and accurately communicated. Our scientists are experts in their fields and conscience driven to perform at their highest possible level. As part of KLRI’s Education Program, we have provided a brief glossary for your use.
