Prof. Jacques Proust

About the doctor

Longevity medicine grown from laboratory science

Anti-ageing programmes are plentiful; the researchers behind them are few. Professor Jacques Proust is one of those researchers. For around ten years he conducted research at the Gerontology Research Center of the US National Institute on Aging in Baltimore and at Johns Hopkins University. He headed the laboratory of immunology of ageing at the Geneva University Hospitals and led the department of internal medicine and geriatrics. More than twenty years ago he founded the centre for the prevention of ageing at Clinique de Genolier, from which the Nescens brand grew; he remains its scientific director.

Why patients choose Professor Proust

• Founder of Nescens. He defined the concept of the preventive medicine centre and personally develops the brand’s products, a direct line from cell biology to application.
