SUMMARY:Symposium "Prevention and Intervention: From Molecular Biology to C
 linical Perspectives"
DESCRIPTION:The industrial countries are in a process of significant popula
 tion ageing, which presents challenges especially for the health system due
  to increased pressure on budgets. The challenge for the future is to impro
 ve functional health among today's elderly on the one hand and to promote h
 ealthier life trajectories for future elderly cohorts on the other hand. Th
 e health care system should therefore develop from a solely repair to a mor
 e preventive system. Life-long prevention should focus on established risk 
 behaviors like physical inactivity or unhealthy diet. Active ageing can ind
 eed enhance quality of life as people age. Preventive interventions should 
 slow the aging rates and, as a major goal, compress the phase of high morbi
 dity before death. Beside the main theme – prevention and intervention – th
 e purpose of this meeting is: to make the general public more aware of the 
 problems of degenerative diseases, to promote greater communication between
  basic scientists and clinicians and to stimulate translational research.We
