Dr Navin Gnanasekaran

Dr Navin Gnanasekaran is a practising physician, medical futurist and thought leader standing at the intersection of clinical medicine and longevity science. With a career spanning over twenty years in healthcare leadership, Dr Navin recognized early on that while Indians are living longer, they are not ageing better – a paradox that drives his work in longevity science. His approach combines rigorous clinical evidence with a deep understanding of the unique Indian phenotype, challenging the blind application of Western medical guidelines to Indian bodies.
He is also a co-founder of a start-up focused on longevity and wellness, serves as an advisor to seven start-ups and sits on the board of two other companies in the same sector. As a sought-after speaker and writer, he explores the intersection of metabolic health, genetics and behavioural psychology to decode complex medical data into clear actionable blueprints that allow busy professionals to become the ‘CEOs of their own health’. He lives in Chennai.
