Most recently, he served as a Scientific Review Officer at Hevolution Foundation, where he helped evaluate more than 600 research proposals and contributed funding recommendations across a $1 billion global longevity research portfolio. Previously, he held scientific leadership roles at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging, Deciduous Therapeutics and LevitasBio, building extensive collaborations across academia, biotechnology companies, CROs and nonprofit research organizations. Dr. Kale earned his Ph.D. in Molecular Genetics from Albert Einstein College of Medicine and has authored 16 publications, including foundational research on NAD+ biology and aging.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&#8220;Scientific discovery has always been driven by collaboration,&#8221; said Abhijit Kale, Ph.D., Senior Director of Global External Research at Niagen Bioscience. &#8220;Niagen Bioscience has built an exceptional global research ecosystem, and I am excited to work alongside leading investigators to expand our understanding of NAD+ biology and help translate groundbreaking science into meaningful advances for human health.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">The Niagen Research Program is one of the largest and most established scientific collaboration initiatives in the healthspan field. Through the program, independent investigators from world-renowned institutions such as Mayo Clinic, National Institutes of Health (NIH), Harvard University, MIT, and Cambridge University have historically requested Niagen, the Company\u2019s flagship patented nicotinamide riboside (NR) ingredient, for their pre-clinical and clinical research on NAD+ biology. The program provides oral food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade Niagen material, scientific collaboration, and technical support. Today, the program supports more than 175 ongoing and developing research studies, with <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.niagenbioscience.com%2Fpages%2Fclinical-studies&amp;esheet=54571562&amp;newsitemid=20260716002772&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=45%2B+being+peer-reviewed+published+clinical+studies&amp;index=3&amp;md5=dc197152f956507dbed9b68097cf1f3c\">45+ being peer-reviewed published clinical studies<\/a> on Niagen to date, over 90% of which are completely independent.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">Research to date spans healthy aging, metabolism, mitochondrial function, cognitive and cardiovascular health, inflammation, rare diseases, and other areas where NAD+ biology plays a critical role. The program has also expanded the field through pioneering research in indications such as Peripheral Artery Disease and Ataxia Telangiectasia.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">Under Dr. Kale&#8217;s leadership, Niagen Bioscience plans to further expand the Global External Research Program to support emerging areas of NAD+ science, including pharmaceutical-grade Niagen injections and infusions, topical applications, and novel research on other NAD+ precursors.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">For additional information on Niagen Bioscience, visit <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.niagenbioscience.com&amp;esheet=54571562&amp;newsitemid=20260716002772&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=www.niagenbioscience.com&amp;index=4&amp;md5=50f3e875909a521e56c2e60291f4c97c\">www.niagenbioscience.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">About Niagen Bioscience<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.niagenbioscience.com%2F&amp;esheet=54571562&amp;newsitemid=20260716002772&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Niagen+Bioscience%2C+Inc.&amp;index=5&amp;md5=f0fa310314b7dac731866fd40764b90f\">Niagen Bioscience, Inc.<\/a> (NASDAQ: NAGE) is the global authority in healthy aging and NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) science.
