Optimizing Healthspan: A Deep Dive into Longevity Science with Dr. Peter Attia
Join us for an engaging fireside chat with Dr. Peter Attia, physician, longevity expert, and author of the bestseller Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity. Dr. Attia will delve into his comprehensive approach to extending human healthspan by addressing the “Four Horsemen” of chronic disease: heart disease, cancer, neurodegenerative disease, and metabolic dysfunction. Drawing from his extensive research and clinical experience, he will share actionable insights on how proactive strategies and cutting-edge medical advancements can combat these leading causes of mortality, offering a roadmap to not just living longer but living better.
This session is highly relevant for executives in diagnostics and life science tools companies, highlighting the critical role of innovation in early detection, prevention, and management of chronic diseases. Attendees will gain valuable perspectives on how advancements in technology and a deeper understanding of disease mechanisms can drive the future of healthcare and longevity. Bring your questions for a thought-provoking discussion that bridges the gap between scientific discovery and practical applications in the quest to extend human healthspan.
A physician renowned for his focus on the applied science of longevity, in Outlive, he challenges conventional medical thinking on aging and advocates for a proactive, preventative approach to health. His expertise spans metabolic disease, nutritional science, and neurodegeneration, making him uniquely positioned to speak on the intersection of these fields. Attendees will benefit from his deep knowledge and leave with a clearer vision of how to navigate and contribute to the rapidly evolving landscape of longevity science.
Dr. Attia earned his medical degree from Stanford University School of Medicine and completed five years of surgical training at Johns Hopkins Hospital. He also spent two years at the National Institutes of Health as a surgical oncology fellow at the National Cancer Institute.
