Professor Kennedy earned his Ph.D. in biology from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1996. He completed postdoctoral training at Massachusetts General Hospital’s Cancer Center and was an associate professor of biochemistry at the University of Washington in Seattle Internationally recognized for his research into the basic biology of aging, Kennedy is past president and CEO of the Buck Institute for Research on Aging. His current research focuses on the pathways that modulate longevity in life forms ranging from yeast to mice. His lab also studies cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndromes, and the genetic mutations underlying diseases such as dilated cardiomyopathy, muscular dystrophy and Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome.
Sergej M. Ostojic earned his medical degree (Doctor of Medicine) from the University of Belgrade School of Medicine in September 1996. Following that, he pursued postgraduate training in experimental biomedical science, obtaining a PhD in Medical Sciences (2003) at the University of Belgrade. His continuing medical education (CME) and postdoctoral education included training in mitochondrial medicine at Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science, as well as nutrition, obesity, and metabolism at Harvard Medical School and Harvard University T.H. Chan School of Public Health. Currently serving as a Professor of Nutrition at the University of Agder, Professor of Biomedical Sciences at the University of Novi Sad, and heading the Applied Bioenergetics Lab, Dr. Ostojic is also a Research Professor of Health Sciences at the University of Pécs. Over his career, he has been appointed as a Visiting Professor at the University of Zagreb (2009) and the University of Central Florida (2014-2015), as well as an Erasmus Teaching Fellow at the University of Rome (2017).
His research encompasses two main themes: studying mitochondrial viability and implementing targeted nutritional interventions to address impaired bioenergetics in health and disease, and analyzing population health metrics in chronic cardiometabolic diseases. Dr. Ostojic has authored and co-authored over 330 peer-reviewed articles in multidisciplinary journals, including those with high impact such as The Lancet, Nature, The BMJ, Trends in Food Science and Technology, Trends in Endocrinology and Metabolism, Advances in Nutrition, American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Clinical Nutrition, Pharmacological Research, along with 140+ invited lectures and conference abstracts, 13 book chapters, and 4 textbooks. He has earned over 28,000 citations with an H-index of 42 (Scopus). An active member of professional organizations such as the American College of Physicians, the American Society for Nutrition, the International Society for Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism, Mitochondrial Medicine Society, and the Nutrition Society, Dr. Ostojic is also part of international research networks in population health, including the European Childhood Obesity Surveillance Initiative (World Health Organization), NCD Risk Factor Collaboration (Imperial College London), and Global Burden of Disease (University of Washington).
