Medicine 4.0: Optimizing Health through Longevity Science | Dr. Matt Kaeberlein

In this talk, Dr. Matt Kaeberlein, Optispan, Washington, USA, discusses how age is the greatest risk factor for nearly every major cause of death and disability in developed nations. Yet, traditional biomedical research, drug development, and clinical practice have generally focused on waiting until people are sick and treating individual diseases one at a time. Attempts to cure age-related diseases have proven unsuccessful at the population level, and the impact of disease-first approaches continues to be incremental. He sheds light on recent advances in understanding the mechanisms linking biological aging to disease, or geroscience, which have identified interventions that directly target the molecular hallmarks of aging. Unlike disease-specific approaches, such interventions have the potential to delay or prevent multiple diseases of aging simultaneously, thereby greatly enhancing healthspan and perhaps lifespan for many individuals. Dr. Kaeberlein provides an overview of Medicine 4.0, which he believes will become the paradigm for the practice of both veterinary and human medicine in the 21st century. Medicine 4.0 will combine science-based proactive healthcare, cutting-edge geroscience discoveries, and novel artificial intelligence tools to provide comprehensive support for personalized health optimization.
