International Workshop on Science & Technology for Healthy Longevity Day 2

Workshop Date and Time:  June 17, 2021 | 9:00 am to 1:00 pm ET

Where: Via webinar on this page.

The U.S. National Academy of Medicine hosted an International Workshop on Science & Technology for Healthy Longevity on June 15 and 17, 2021. This 2-day workshop served as an information gathering session to inform the National Academy of Medicine’s effort to develop a Global Roadmap for Healthy Longevity. The roadmap will assess the challenges presented by population aging and offer evidence-based insights for actions to improve health across the lifecourse.

The Science and Technology workshop explored and identified avenues for innovative and groundbreaking research and development across basic, clinical, pharmaceutical, social and behavioral sciences, bioengineering, information technology, and assistive technologies. It also examined ways to expand research funding and encourage targeted research.
