As noted in a brief Daily Telegraph spot on telomerase, cancer and aging, the 2nd International Conference on Healthy Aging and Longevity is underway in Brisbane. The speaker list looks just as interesting as last year for those of us in the healthy life extension community - many familiar and respected names and topics. Presentations include "The Molecular Basis of Life-Span Becomes Clearer," "Caloric Restriction Mimetics: The Next Phase" and "Drug Therapy Versus Calorie Restriction to Delay Age-Related Disease Onset and Prolong Life." Good stuff, and kudos to the organizers for putting up the necessary funding and effort to develop this successful conference series.
