A close collaborator of Vladimir Putin is leading research on aging using data from thousands of primates. The project aims to find ways to extend healthy human lifespan, a topic of interest for the Kremlin. Mihail Kovalciuk, head of the Kurcheatov Institute, announced that researchers are studying elderly primates to understand biological aging mechanisms. The study involves over 7,000 primates, including valuable long-lived species. Kovalciuk emphasized the goal of identifying methods to prolong health and physical capabilities. Putin has previously discussed human longevity, and Kovalciuk is considered an informal scientific advisor to him. The Kurcheatov Institute is expanding its research into aging biology, although no effective treatments have been reported yet.
