From as far back as he can remember, Jean has been driven by how we might improve our biological fates and defeat aging. This interest led him to do a Ph.D. in Genetics at UCSF, where he studied the regulation of embryonic stem cell differentiation. Jean then moved to Stanford University for postdoctoral studies focused on neural stem cells and how they generate the neocortex, the part of our brains that we use for our highest cognitive functions. As a Professor in Neuroscience and Genetics at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Jean’s lab focused on tissue-based approaches to reversing brain aging. To accelerate a path to the clinic, he founded a company aimed at functional neocortical tissue replacement, and then took a 3-year Program Manager position at ARPA-H where he is currently.

Replacement as the surest, cheapest, and easiest way to beat aging.
