DR. VADIM FRAIFELD
Vadim Fraifeld, Ph.D., M.D.
is Senior Researcher, Department of Microbiology and Immunology,
Center for Multidisciplinary Research in Aging, Ben-Gurion University
of the Negev, Beer-Sheva, Israel.
Vadim's research interests are
biology of aging and longevity and thermoregulation. His research
projects are
genomic and proteomic analyses of exeptional longevity,
analysis of protein profile in aging muscle using MALDI-TOF mass
spectrometry: implications in sarcopenia,
mechanisms of anti-tumor activity of polyphenolic compounds, and
alternative pathways of arachidonate metabolism, fever, and aging.
He coauthored
Evidence supporting involvement of leukotrienes in LPS-induced
hypothermia in mice,
p66ShcA and aging: modulation by longevity-promoting
agent
aurintricarboxylic acid,
Superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities
in
the liver of young and old mice: linear regression and
correlation,
Dietary restriction modifies fever response in aging rats,
Glutathione S-transferase hGSTM3 and ageing-associated
neurodegeneration: relationship to Alzheimer's disease,
Mitochondrial Genome Anatomy and Species-Specific Lifespan,
and
From Disease-Oriented to Aging/Longevity-Oriented Studies.
Vadim earned his M.D. at the Lvov Medical Institute, Lvov, Ukraine in
1974 and his Ph.D. at the Institute of Gerontology, Kiev, Ukraine, in
1989. Watch his SENS 3 presentation
