SUMMARY:Modulating Ageing / Antiageing: from Molecular Biology to Clinical 
 Perspectives
DESCRIPTION:Population aging in the 19th to 21st centuries is unprecedented
  in human history. Although average life expectancy is still increasing, we
  will have to confront the same degenerative diseases as in the last centur
 y. Within the world wide health systems, the major goal will change from ju
 st treating isolated single diseases to an increase in healthspan. Ageing i
 s the most important common risk factor and the basis for most of the age-r
 elated chronic diseases. In model systems, we have learned a great deal abo
 ut the mechanisms of ageing and are able to modify health as well as lifesp
 an by genetic, pharmacological or lifestyle interventions. It will be the g
 oal in the future to translate such results into humans. The purpose of thi
 s meeting is (1) to discuss aging as a modifiable risk factor of diseases, 
 (2) to promote greater communication among the world-wide community of indi
 viduals engaged in ageing research and (3) to invite young students to join
  this field of research. The congress will be the 8th international meeting
  on ageing in Halle (Saale) and will accompany the development of a focus o
 n ageing research in Central-Germany. It will comprise invited talks and po
 ster sessions. There will be no concurrent sessions.\n\nFurther Information
