Feldman

Sarit Feldman is a computational biologist and PhD candidate, exploring the mechanisms of healthy aging and longevity. Drawing on evolutionary biology, particularly the development of long- living animals, her research aims to understand the differences in protein modifications between short- and long-living mammals. Sarit employs tools from data science, statistics, AI, and molecular biology to identify longevity-associated protein modifications and find new targets for interventions to enhance the quality of life for the elderly.
