Alexandre Martinez, MD, MPH

Founder & Chief Executive Officer

Alexandre is a physician with training in internal medicine. His research interests connect clinical medicine, cellular aging, and genomic engineering, with aging-related organ failure as a central motivation for Argead.

He is interested in the tradeoff between cellular resilience and growth control: how proposed interventions might support useful function while preserving appropriate tumor-suppressive mechanisms. Resolving that tradeoff requires evidence.
