Why longevity science matters
By discovering interventions for the underlying causes of aging, we can hold off the onset of diseases like cancer, frailty and neurodegeneration – allowing people to live longer, healthier lives.
But longevity science is underfunded, and many important treatments that could improve our lives never make it out of the laboratory.
What we're doing about it
VitaDAO is a community for people who are proactively working towards a better quality of life as they age.
We support the researchers who are working to develop therapies to solve age-related diseases in a way that may change the outcomes of aging for everyone in our lifetime.

How we put your support to use
VitaDAO raises money from supporters and donations.
Researchers apply to VitaDAO for funding. Our network of scientists vet applications.
Our members vote to fund the most promising research projects.
The research is developed into a product or company, or sold to a pharma co.
The financial return is fed back into VitaDAO's treasury, where it is used to fund new research.
