Career
Richard Cutler.[1] was a Gerontologist who spent his career focused on studying why people age and what therapies could be used to slow down the aging process. He is most well known for his contributions to determining the role of oxidative stress and DNA methylation in aging, as well as his work on the evolution of human longevity. His original hypothesis on the basic cause of aging, termed dysdifferentiation, is still a topic of current research endeavors in the field.
- NIH Postdoc at Brookhaven National Laboratory 1967-1970
- Assistant Professor at the University of Texas at Dallas Institute of Molecular Biology 1970-1976
- Principal Investigator at the National Institute on Aging[2] 1976-1995
- Founder/President/CEO at Genox Corp[3] 1991-1995
- Kronos Longevity Research Institute 1996-2008
Early career
At the age of 18, Richard built one of the world’s first jet helicopters. The helicopter had ram jet engines on the ends of a traditional helicopter blade, which made for a simple though very loud design. It had several short test flights and was shown to be feasible. During night flights, it was highly visible as the jet engines were red hot. During a test, one of the ram jets came off of the blades and flew over a mile. When a local businessman heard about this, he gave Richard a full scholarship to go to college, as he saw great potential in him. Ultimately, jet helicopters would be built using jet turbines rather than ram jets.
