About Us

Rejuve Therapeutics, based in Rockville, Maryland, USA, was founded in 2021 to pioneer cutting-edge research and development of solutions aimed at understanding, slowing, and ultimately reversing the aging process.
At Rejuve Therapeutics, we believe that aging is not an inevitable fate. Rather, we see it as a programmed biological process—carefully orchestrated by nature to support the survival of the species as a whole.
This belief is supported by the fact that humans and other animals can naturally rejuvenate themselves during reproduction, by reprogramming cells derived from the parents back to an age-zero state—a principle further validated by advances in animal cloning studies.
Leveraging the power of artificial intelligence and bioinformatics, together with our unique strategies and proprietary rejuvenation screening platform, we are dedicated to identifying the key genes capable of rejuvenating cells in the human body, replicating the natural rejuvenation that occurs during reproduction.
Through our innovative approaches, we strive to develop transformative methods and solutions that halt and reverse aging at its root—extending human lifespan while promoting long-term health, vitality, and active living.
