Consensus Recommendation to Immediately Expand Research on Extending Healthy Lifespans.
The Dublin Longevity Declaration, signed by scientific and medical leaders, calls for an immediate expansion of research on extending healthy human lifespans.
An increase in healthy lifespans, through much better treatment of age-related diseases (dementia, heart disease, cancer, frailty, and many more), would deliver extraordinary benefits - including savings of trillions of dollars per year in healthcare costs.
Here, dozens of world-leading experts declare that such an advance is now potentially within reach, by targeting the underlying processes of aging, and that efforts to achieve it should be immediately and greatly expanded.
