2026 Geromedicine Conference | Dr Cao Shuqin, University of Oslo and Akershus University Hospital

Watch the oral poster presentation by Dr Cao Shuqin, Research Fellow at the University of Oslo and Akershus University Hospital, at the NUS Academy for Healthy Longevity’s 2026 Geromedicine Conference. This presentation explores the potential of a small molecule derived from colourful fruit as a mitochondrial guardian in the context of Alzheimer’s disease. Dr Cao discusses how the molecule may help protect mitochondrial function and mitigate disease-related pathology, offering insights into the relationship between mitochondrial health, cellular resilience, and neurodegenerative disease. The presentation highlights the importance of investigating naturally derived compounds and mitochondria-focused approaches in the search for innovative strategies to support brain health, address Alzheimer’s disease pathology, and promote healthy longevity. The 2026 Geromedicine Conference brings together researchers, clinicians, and industry experts to explore advances in geroscience, geromedicine, neurodegenerative disease research, and evidence-informed approaches to improving healthspan. #Geromedicine #HealthyLongevity #AlzheimersDisease #Neuroscience #Mitochondria #MitochondrialHealth #BrainHealth #Neurodegeneration #AgeingResearch #Healthspan #Geroscience #UniversityOfOslo #AkershusUniversityHospital #NUSMedicine #NUSAcademyForHealthyLongevity
