Dr. Gil Blander received his PhD in biology from the Weizmann Institute of Science (in Prof. Moshe Oren’s Lab), and undertook postgraduate research on aging at MIT (in Prof. Lenny Guarente’s Lab). An expert in nutrition, biomarker analytics, athletic performance, biochemistry, and aging research, Gil holds numerous patents and has published peer-reviewed articles in these fields. Gil is the Founder and CSO of InsideTracker, a personalized health and performance analytics company created by a team of scientists, physicians, nutritionists and exercise physiologists from MIT, Harvard, and Tufts University. The InsideTracker platform tracks and analyzes key biochemical and physiological markers, then applies sophisticated algorithms and large scientific databases to determine personalized optimal zones for each marker. InsideTracker’s expert system offers science-driven nutrition and lifestyle interventions, which empower people to optimize their markers. When optimized, marker levels have been scientifically proven to increase vitality, improve athletic performance, and extend life.
