Longevity Medicine Course Series
Longevity medicine is a fast-evolving field and it is currently outpacing the ability of the medical practice to internalize and implement the progress of related research. Modern advances in AI and machine learning, biomarker research and drug development have produced numerous tools for early diagnostics and prevention, which remain unknown to the global medical community. The paradigm of longevity and healthy aging as the top priority will undoubtedly greatly impact the primary, secondary and tertiary prevention rates. The Longevity Medicine Course (LMC) is a pivotal curriculum that provides medical professionals with most recent advances in biogerontology, geroscience and precision medicine, while teaching the ways to implement this knowledge in the clinical practice.
The curriculum has been developed by interdisciplinary experts (physicians, academic biogerontologists, AI-experts, computer scientists, KOL in longevity), covering the necessary foundation and most recent scientific evidence.

Morten Scheibye-Knudsen, MD, PhD
Dr. Morten Scheibye-Knudsen, associate professor, University of Copenhagen. According to him "Aging is the largest risk factor for most diseases and damage to our genome is likely the cause of aging". He is focused on exploring the physiological consequences of DNA damage and what we can do to intervene in genotoxic insults. His goal is to understand, modulate, and perhaps treat aging and age-related diseases.

I'm a physician trained in functional medicine interested in longevity medicine and the role of AI in helping physicians like me helping people slow or reverse aging. This course is an awesome introduction and overview of the terminology and major concepts in longevity science.
Longevity Medicine Workshop 2021
Longevity Medicine is a burgeoning discipline that is uniquely rapidly evolving, fueled by the progress in geroscience, in AI/biotech, and in medicine as a whole, including virtually all disciplines. Moreover, it continuously adds the most advanced personalized approaches, such as multi-omics, AI, deep aging biomarkers, precision imaging, aging clocks, robotics, smart technologies to the assortment. This enormous pace and granularity demand an intensive acceleration of the translation from basic science towards the clinic, as well as a parallel, continued credible education for practicing physicians. In order to position longevity medicine as a solid clinical and academic discipline, it is incumbent to initiate and facilitate an interdisciplinary dialogue and on bridging the gap between health care providers and interdisciplinary experts such as academic biogerontologists, AI experts, computer scientists, peer-reviewed targeted publishing venues, and KOLs.
The Longevity Medicine Workshop is the first in history to bring health care providers involved in longevity and discuss the status quo and the future of the field, as well as related challenges, perspectives, and actionable items. The Workshop is an excellent addition to the Longevity Medicine Course for Physicians.
According to the United Nations, the proportion of people aged over 65 now outnumber children younger than 5. The enormous growth in the elderly population is posing a socioeconomic challenge to societies worldwide, and necessitates new sweeping interventions for age-associated diseases. This year we have an incredibly exciting program with global thought-leaders sharing their latest insights into aging and how we target aging process ensuring everyone lives a healthier and longer life. Welcome to the 8th Aging Research and Drug Discovery Meeting.
The 8th annual Aging Research and Drug Discovery Meeting is a non-profit conference
The ARDD Meeting has grown a great deal in a relatively short time: from a small forum in 2014 to a separate and independent meeting with over 2k delegates in 2020. From its start as a small forum during EMBO Conference, ARDD has expanded, including short talks of young scientists, industry panel discussions, workshops (NEW in 2021) and a student ambassadors program (NEW in 2021).
From 2014 till 2019 the ARDD Meeting was a part of bigger conferences (EMBO and Basel Life), in 2020 ARDD became an independent event. For most of its history, ARDD has been run on a shoestring with some support from our extensive close collaborators and KOLs in the field. From 2020 all the expenses, including travel and venue costs have to be covered by the ARDD organisers.
