Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and Biophysics at the University of Minnesota, where she directs the Institute on the Biology of Aging and Metabolism (iBAM). She is a biochemist, molecular biologist and geneticist; her expertise is in DNA damage and repair, cellular senescence, and progeroid syndromes, a group of very rare genetic disorders that cause premature aging. Her scientific activities have contributed to the discovery that DNA damage plays a causal role in driving aging and the discovery of a new class of drugs called senolytics to slow and reverse aging. Dr. Niedernhofer serves on the board of the Academy of Health and Lifespan Research, the American Federation of Aging Research, and the Scientific Advisory Panel of Hevolution Foundation.
