Optispan, a company founded by aging researcher Dr. Matt Kaeberlein, aims to extend healthy lifespan ("healthspan") by 10-20 years through proactive, preventative healthcare measures.
The company believes the current healthcare system emphasizes treating illness rather than maintaining health, leading to a "lost decade" of declining well-being for many individuals.
Optispan wants to provide tools and protocols that transform healthcare, focusing on scientifically targeting the underlying biology of the aging process.
While offering a clinic for research purposes, Optispan is not primarily a "longevity clinic" but a healthcare technology company focused on developing scalable wellness solutions.
The company will initially target corporations with wellness programs and medical professionals seeking to offer a more preventive, science-based approach to healthcare.
Optispan is exploring biological age testing but emphasizes that its priority is to use science to develop practical tools that improve people's healthspan significantly.
