All about Oliver Zolman: Bryan Johnson's doctor and longevity expert

Oliver Zolman introduced himself as a “professional evidence-based rejuvenation coach and clinician trainer,” at a Longevity Summit Dublin in 2022. He lives in Cambridge, England and travels to Spain regularly, and intends to open a clinic there.

From a young age, Oliver Zolman has always been fascinated with the idea of longevity and regenerative medicine. The idea of reversing age-based changes has been an interest for a long time. Talking about his interest, he told the Times U.K.:

“I learnt about growing new ears on the side of mice, and making frogs grow eyes in their stomachs, or just 3D-printing replacement organs. It seemed kind of like a video game.”

His interest was further intensified when he injured himself while playing basketball during his first year of medical school at King’s College London, according to Bloomberg. He struggled with recovery despite seeing several doctors, before deciding to take things into his own hands.

Oliver Zolman graduated with a degree in regenerative medicine and biology and he has now made a name for himself in the field of longevity and regenerative medicine. His pioneering project, Project Blueprint, is what Bryan Johnson follows.

Johnson says that Zolman's protocols worked well for him and helped slow down aging by 31 years, as reported by the Project Blueprint website.

Zolman’s approach comes in three levels. The first level, which is the least invasive, involves changes in lifestyle factors to extend lifespan health. The second level consists of non-age-related modalities and the third level involves organ rejuvenation protocols that fully reverse aging.

Oliver Zolman is passionate about his research and spends days researching medical studies and journals and working with clients on their longevity protocols. His hobbies include playing tennis, basketball, and the bass guitar.
