See the workA little about me.
I’m Constantin Convalexius. I work across biology and engineering because I want to understand aging—and help make it reversible.
I earned my MD at the Medical University of Vienna in June 2026. Along the way, I worked in immunology and AI research, built software, taught, and founded communities for people pursuing ambitious questions.
It has not been a straight line. The connecting thread is learning how to take a question seriously enough to do something about it: an experiment, a piece of software, or a place where people can work together.

Beyond the work
There is too much
worth understanding.
I get lost in mathematics, physics, neuroscience, and philosophy. I like people who care deeply about a question and are willing to follow it further than is convenient.
Eighty years isn’t enough. There is too much universe, too much to build, and too many people still to meet.
