Topics of Discussion

• Is aging the result of a passive accumulation of damage or an active self-destruction program? That is, do we age for the same reason cars wear out, or for the same reason we go through puberty?

• Do all mammals age by the same mechanisms?

• Does the biological clock that governs the timing of wisdom teeth budding affect the rate of aging?

• What progress has been made in reversing aging?

 

Conference Summary

• Curing Aging is an annual conference held in the Midwestern United States. Invited speakers will discuss aging research and therapeutic longevity interventions. 

• Aging should be viewed as a disease rather than as a natural, inevitable process. The more widely the aging-as-a-disease mindset is appreciated, the sooner effective treatments can be developed.

• There is no reason why an old body must be more prone to morbidity than a young body. One day soon, aging will be a thing of the past. It is only a matter of time.
