Nicklas Brendborg (b. 1995) is a Danish scientist and author. His international bestseller Jellyfish Age Backwards has been translated to more than 30 languages and was shortlisted for the Royal Society Science Book Prize. He is the youngest ever author to have been shortlisted for this award. Brendborg holds bachelor's and master's degrees in molecular biomedicine andbiotechnology from the University of Copenhagen and is now a PhD student in molecular biology. He has been recognised by, among others, the Novo Nordisk International Talent Program and the Novo Nordisk Scholarship Program. The second book in his series of popular science books about longevity, Super Stimulated (Vanedyr) was a bestseller in Denmark in 2023 and is also being translated across the globe.

In Super Stimulated, Nicklas Brendborg brilliantly unpacks how modern life hijacks our ancient biology - designing environments that exploit our instincts and hardwire us for unhealthy habits. As a scientist, I found it both sobering and empowering. This book is a call to awareness - and a toolkit for reclaiming our agency in a world that profits from our overstimulation.
