Dr Nathalie Helm is a specialist physician and Associate Professor with further training in functional medicine and longevity. She completed her PhD at Karolinska Institutet in 2000, was a postdoc at Harvard School of Public Health, and has been Associate Professor in medical epidemiology at Sahlgrenska Academy since 2012.
Her career bridges over 25 years of medical research with functional medicine training from the Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM) and the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine (A4M). From 2023 to 2026 she was Chief Medical Officer (CMO) at Hercare (women’s health clinic) and AgeBack (longevity membership club in Stockholm). In 2026 she opened her own practice, HELM Longevity.
The subject is also personal. At 46 she developed nocturnal neurological symptoms, was on sick leave for a few months, and was investigated neurologically for MS among other things, without anyone connecting the symptoms to perimenopause. That experience, and her meetings with women who had been treated the same way by the healthcare system, lie behind her work on women’s health during and after menopause.
On stage Nathalie takes the audience from research frontier to action. She combines scientific precision with clinical pragmatism. No pseudoscience, no shortcuts. Her talks cover how to extend the number of healthy years, the specific health needs of women across every life stage, and what functional medicine adds where conventional medicine falls short.
Closing the women’s health gap.
Women’s health has historically been under-researched and under-treated. The talk walks the audience through the specific hormonal, metabolic, and inflammatory changes that occur in perimenopause and menopause, what biomarkers can show, and which evidence-based interventions actually work. Practical, scientifically grounded, and built for an audience that wants to act.
The science of longevity, from research frontier to action.
What does the latest longevity research say about what’s actually within our control? The talk works through The Hallmarks of Aging (mitochondrial function, autophagy, AMPK, hormones, inflammation) and translates them into concrete interventions. For those who want to build a practice on scientific ground rather than hype.
