Biography
Max Peto currently leads the OncoSENS project on ALT at the SENSF Research Center, which began on Feb 1st, 2012. Max started his work at the SENSF as a researcher at the SENSF-RC in Mountain View, CA, in June 2010, where he worked on the expression and purification of LysoSENS enzymes for atherosclerosis and age-related macular degeneration. Prior to working directly with the SENSF (2008-2010) he studied undergraduate biochemistry at the University of Toledo to become trained in biological research so he can investigate and advance the SENS research agenda. He's highly excited to work directly on advancing the SENS research agenda after 4 years of studying biology and biochemistry both formally and independently for this purpose. The exciting promise of SENS interventions is very motivating and inspiring to Max. Directed effort toward addressing the *causes* of age-related diseases is the only way to truly cure them. This is in contrast to slowing their appearance or treating the symptoms as many current medical interventions focus on. As such, he intends to perform or otherwise support SENS or SENS-related research for many years, as he thinks the enormous positive potential of SENS requires persistent effort by many to be realized. Other topics of interest to Max are studies biochemistry, life-extension, metabolism, nutrition, exercise physiology, economics, efficiency, psychology, cryonics, and creativity. Max also holds an MBA with a focus in Management and International Business, and was previously an accountant and college business and accounting professor.
