Collette Baughan

Collette Baughan is a longevity scientist with more than three decades of experience studying the biological processes that influence ageing, resilience, and long-term health. Now aged 56, Collette combines scientific expertise with a practical understanding of what it actually takes to maintain energy, strength, and cognitive sharpness through midlife and beyond.

Her work focuses on translating complex longevity science into realistic strategies people can apply in everyday life. With a particular interest in cellular ageing, inflammation, metabolic health, and lifestyle intervention, Collette believes the future of healthy ageing lies in combining cutting-edge research with sustainable habits rather than miracle cures or extreme biohacking.

Throughout her career, she has contributed to research projects exploring nutrition, recovery, hormonal health, and preventative medicine. She is especially passionate about helping people understand how small daily decisions can influence healthspan, independence, and quality of life over the long term.

Away from research and writing, Collette enjoys hill walking, strength training, and exploring the growing connection between modern science and traditional approaches to wellbeing.
