Collaborate with BHIAR

Advancing aging research through scientific, translational, and institutional collaboration.

Ways to Work with BHIAR

We welcome collaborations that connect scientific research, institutional expertise, translation, and scientific exchange.

  1. Scientific & Institutional Collaboration

    We collaborate with researchers, laboratories, universities, research institutes, and scientific organizations on questions related to aging and age-related diseases.

    Areas

    Joint Research · Theory Development · Experimental Validation · Institutional Collaboration

    Notes

    Collaborations are developed around clearly defined scientific questions, complementary expertise, and appropriate research standards. The scope and structure of each collaboration are determined according to the needs of the project.

  2. Translational & Industry Collaboration

    We work with biotechnology companies, translational researchers, and other partners to explore the development of scientific findings into potential interventions for aging and age-related diseases.

    Areas

    Therapeutic Targets · Biotechnology · Drug Development · Preclinical and Clinical Translation

    Notes

    Translational collaborations may involve intellectual property, confidentiality, regulatory, governance, or development considerations. Appropriate arrangements are determined according to the nature and stage of each project.

  3. Scientific Communication & Publishing

    We collaborate on scientific publications, books, interviews, educational initiatives, and other forms of communication that contribute to rigorous public and academic discussion of aging research.

    Areas

    Academic Publishing · Books · Scientific Communication · Interviews and Educational Content

    Notes

    Scientific accuracy, appropriate attribution, editorial independence, and clarity of communication are important considerations in these collaborations.

  4. Events & Scientific Exchange

    We participate in and develop opportunities for scientific exchange through seminars, conferences, webinars, institutional visits, and other research-focused events.

    Areas

    Seminars · Conferences · Webinars · Institutional Visits · Scientific Exchange

    Notes

    Event collaborations are considered according to scientific relevance, format, audience, scheduling, and alignment with BHIAR’s research and communication priorities.

What We Look For

We value collaborations built on scientific rigor, shared purpose, complementary strengths, and the potential to create lasting value.

  1. Scientific Rigor

    Collaboration should be grounded in serious scientific reasoning, testable ideas, and appropriate evidence.

  2. Mission Alignment

    Projects should meaningfully contribute to understanding aging or developing approaches to aging and age-related diseases.

  3. Complementary Strengths

    We value collaborations in which each party contributes distinct expertise, capabilities, resources, or perspectives.

  4. Long-Term Value

    We favor relationships capable of creating durable scientific, translational, or societal value rather than purely transactional engagement.

How Collaboration Begins

Most collaborations begin with a simple conversation. From there, we explore whether there is a meaningful basis for working together.

  1. 01

    Initial Contact

    Tell us briefly who you are, what you are working on, and why you believe there may be a meaningful basis for collaboration.

  2. 02

    Internal Review

    Our team considers the scientific, strategic, operational, and, where relevant, legal or intellectual property aspects of the opportunity.

  3. 03

    Exploratory Discussion

    If there appears to be a meaningful fit, we arrange an initial conversation to explore objectives, potential contributions, and possible ways of working together.

  4. 04

    Confirm Collaboration

    Where appropriate, both parties further confirm the scope of collaboration, responsibilities, governance, intellectual property, funding, publication, and other relevant arrangements.

  5. 05

    Formalize the Agreement

    Once the scope, responsibilities, governance, and relevant terms have been agreed, the parties complete the necessary collaboration agreement, memorandum of understanding, or other formal documentation.

  6. 06

    Begin Collaboration

    Once the necessary documents and arrangements are in place, the collaboration moves into the implementation phase.

Our Collaborations
