Ross Grant, PhD

A biochemical pharmacologist with a Ph.D.in Neurochemistry/Neuropharmacology, Dr. Grant’s research is focused on the role of diet and lifestyle in the generation of oxidative stress and changes in NAD metabolism and how this influences cellular degeneration, particularly inthe central nervous system. A related interest is in the effect of exposure to novel nutritional components, such as polyphenols, on human cellular response to oxidative stress, with a goal of detecting and correcting early degenerative biochemical changes associated with age-related degenerative disease.

With more than fifty published articles inpeer-reviewed journals, Dr. Grant is a productive author in the field of oxidative stress, inflammation and NAD research.
