Rhonda Patrick

Dr. Rhonda Patrick holds a Ph.D. in Biomedical Science from the University of Tennessee Health Science Center and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, along with a Bachelor's degree in Biochemistry/Chemistry from UC San Diego. Her doctoral research at St. Jude investigated the link between mitochondrial metabolism, apoptosis, and cancer, resulting in groundbreaking discoveries about a critical survival protein with dual mitochondrial localizations that she published in Nature Cell Biology in 2012. She completed postdoctoral fellowship training in Nutritional Biochemistry at Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute.

As founder of FoundMyFitness LLC in 2014, Patrick serves as a science communicator and specialist for a worldwide audience, sharing evidence-based insights on aging and disease prevention through her website, podcast, and YouTube channel. She is an associate scientist and board member at the Fatty Acid Research Institute, advancing understanding of omega-3 fatty acids in aging and health. Her published research appears in high-impact journals including Nature Cell Biology, FASEB Journal, Experimental Gerontology, and Science, with her work primarily focused on aging, cancer, and nutrition.
