Dr. Abhishek Kumar Singh, PhD, is Associate Professor at Manipal Centre for Biotherapeutics Research, Manipal Academy of Higher Education, Manipal, Karnataka, India. He has over fifteen years research experience in the neurobiology of aging using multiple model systems. His primary research investigates the interplay between autophagy and pro-survival pathways during the aging of the brain and aging-induced neurodegenerative disorders, particularly Alzheimer’s disease. Additionally, he develops caloric restriction mimetics-based strategies to slow down brain aging to improve health span and lifespan. Dr. Singh has published more than 50 research articles in international journals of high repute, edited two books, and contributed to over fifteen book chapters in international publications. Dr. Singh currently serves as Academic Editor of PLOS One and guest editor and referee for more than 10 journals.
