Presented by T.A. Sciences in education partnership
At the 2022 Telomere Summit, you’ll learn how to:
Understand the biology of telomeres: Discover how telomeres function in the body, the impact of shrinking telomeres on cells and senescence, and how telomere length is directly related to degenerative disease, illness, and the aging process.
Discover how doctors across the world use telomere therapy: Due to regulations, doctors worldwide have developed new and innovative ways to use telomerase activators in their practice. Discover their secrets at the summit.
Seamlessly incorporate telomerase activators into your practice: Learn how to manage inventory, market your products.
Optimize dosage and tracking for every patient: Telomerase activators don’t have fixed dosing, so finding the right dose can be challenging. We’ll dive into the best ways to manage and track dosage - AND how to identify patients with critically short telomeres.
Effectively communicate with your patients about potential outcomes: How do you communicate the long-term benefits of telomerase activators to your youngest patients? How do you express the benefits vs. the costs of telomere therapy? Our experts weigh in on their best practices.
Manage supplements, peptides, hormones, and prescriptions with telomere therapy: Do you know which peptides work best with telomerase activators? What about the hormones to avoid when starting telomere therapy? It’s all inside the summit.

Joseph M. Raffaele, MD
Received his B.A. in philosophy from Princeton University and his MD from Drexel University Medical School in 1989. Dr. Raffaele trained at The New York Hospital/Cornell University Medical Center and was formerly a clinical assistant professor of medicine at Dartmouth Medical School while in practice at the Hitchcock Clinic. Dr. Raffaele is a member of the Endocrine Society, is board certified in internal medicine, and is a diplomat of the American Board of Anti-Aging Medicine. In 1997, he co-founded PhysioAge Medical Group where he exclusively practiced age management medicine with a focus on personalized hormone optimization and physiological age assessment. In 2007, his co-founded PhysioAge Systems, a web-based biomarker data collection and reporting system now used by age management practices around the world to assess, monitor, and communicate to patients the effectiveness of their treatments. Since 2009, he has been involved in clinical telomere biology research and published 3 studies of the effect of oral telomerase activators on normal aging adults. He has lectured nationally and internationally on the clinical application of telomere biology. In 2015 he founded Raffaele Medical Group and blogs regularly about telomere biology, hormone optimization, and biomarkers of aging on DrRaffaele.com and PhysioAge.com
