Synopsis

A plethora of genetic, dietary and pharmacological interventions can extend healthy lifespan in laboratory animals, and can delay or ameliorate diverse aging-related diseases. Mechanisms of aging are conserved in evolution, and discoveries made in animals are informing our understanding of human aging. This raises the intriguing possibility of performing preventative medicine against chronic and age-related diseases, by targeting their main risk factor, namely aging. Important current challenges in the field are (1) to understand the downstream pathways by which longevity interventions can combat age-related loss of function and pathology, (2) to evaluate the impact of regenerative interventions and cellular reprogramming on age-related diseases, and (3) to translate the findings into the extension of human health span.  

This fourth meeting will continue to explore these topics, with particular emphasis on what we can learn from variation in the rate of ageing in the natural world, mitochondria, cellular senescence, biomarkers and epidemiology, immune aging and reprogramming and rejuvenation strategies.

Key Sessions

  • Mitochondrial quality control and aging
  • Ultra long lives and immortality
  • Autophagy and proteostasis
  • Regenerative interventions and cellular reprogramming
  • Human ageing: biomarkers and cell senescence
  • Microbiome and aging

Student Offer

Take advantage of this fantastic opportunity for students! Fully paying academics can bring a student for only €882. Unfortunately, Postdocs are not eligible. Both registration packages include; accommodation for the 11, 12, 13 October 2023 (on a shared basis for students) and a food and beverage package for the conference period. Once registered, please contact Emily Meen to obtain a special registration link for your student.

Venue

Sun Gardens Dubrovnik

We are excited to be adding a beautiful Adriatic destination to our portfolio for autumn 2023 – the Sun Gardens Dubrovnik in Croatia. The resort is nestled into the hillside with uninterrupted, stunning views of the ocean. 

This beautiful hotel is located only 11 km from Dubrovnik city centre, in the small village of Orašac, nestled amongst the citrus groves, palm trees and gorgeous blue sea that characterize the city. The Old City, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with magnificent defensive walls surrounding it, is just one of the wonderful places to visit. With stunning architecture, scenic walks, wine tasting, boat trips and beautiful beaches, there is plenty to inspire when exploring beyond the hotel. We truly believe Croatia will become a firm favourite with our delegates.

The hotel boasts several wonderful dining options with a mix of Dalmatian, Mediterranean, international and fusion culinary experiences. Or you may want to take in the stunning views of the sea and the nearby islands as you unwind, relax and catch up on the day’s events in one of the hotels bars. Pools, a promenade, spa, sports centre and beaches are just a few of the other facilities you will find available during your stay. 

This is not an all-inclusive property, but we have arranged a full food and beverage package for delegates during the conference period which is included within the registration fee. Breakfast will be at leisure each morning, but participants will dine together for conference lunches and dinners. For anyone staying any extra nights, the rate will be bed and breakfast only so delegates can choose whether to dine at the hotel or explore and eat elsewhere. 

Hotel facilities include;
•    Complimentary Wi-Fi in guest rooms and throughout hotel and conference areas
•    3 Pools
•    Spa
•    Gym & Sports Center
•    8 Restaurants
•    9 Bars
•    Kids Club
•    Beach

Transportation

The hotel is approximately 40 minutes from Dubrovnik Airport, the second largest international airport in Croatia. Europeans will find this fairly easy to get to and from New York also offer a direct flight option for anyone travelling from the US. The most common flights into Dubrovnik are from Zagreb and Frankfurt so these are popular choices for interconnecting flights.

Airport transfer details and recommended suppliers will be available shorlty.

We have several oral opportunities available at this meeting. To be considered for a talk, please register for the conference and upload your abstract when prompted to do so. You will be able to monitor the status of your abstract through your Fusion account and you will also receive an email if you are successful or unsuccessful.

Please use the abstract template provided (see below) and ensure your abstract is no longer than one page in length.

If you are accepted for a talk, we recommend you check our website regularly as the conference approaches. Regular programme updates will be released under the ‘Programme’ tab on the conference website.

Your Presentation

On the day of your presentation please make yourself known to our AV technician who will be present in the conference room. We advise running through your presentation at least 30minutes prior to your session commencing to ensure your slides and any videos or animations appear as expected. We prefer our speakers to run their presentation from the master PC or Mac, however, if you prefer to use your own laptop then please notify us prior to the session. A HDMI or VGA cable is usually available on the podium.

Our AV technician will apply your microphone and provide a combined slide advancer and laser pointer.

We ask all speakers to adhere to their time slots and respect their fellow presenters. A visual traffic light aide will be available to warn presenters as their time decreases.

Please make sure your presentation adheres to the following guidelines.
