Despite remarkable progress in the biology of ageing and the emergence of candidate longevity interventions, the translation of this science into accessible, well-regulated and equitably distributed practice still lags far behind. Healthy Longevity: Policies and Practices, edited by Ilia Stambler for the Springer series Healthy Ageing and Longevity (Vol. 23), is a comprehensive attempt to map and accelerate that translation.
The volume gathers twenty-four chapters by world-leading experts — researchers, clinicians, regulators, ethicists, economists and policy advocates — and examines how to actually implement policies for healthy longevity and geroprotector research at national and international level.
Themes covered
- R&D and educational policies supporting geroscience and longevity medicine.
- Governance, regulation and ethics of emerging longevity interventions.
- Clinical evaluation frameworks, biomarkers and ageing-relevant trial endpoints.
- Standardisation, quality control and accessibility of geroprotectors.
- Public health integration, prevention pathways and equity considerations.
- National case studies and international cooperation models.
