AFAR Scientific Director Nir Barzilai, MD, and Immediate Past President James L. Kirkland, MD, PhD, contributed insights to The Global Healthspan Report: A New Agenda for Global Health, recently published by Hevolution Foundation.
The report stems from Hevolution’s Global Healthspan Summit in Fall 2023, where Senior Scientific Director Steven Austad, PhD, spoke.
The report draws from a worldwide survey of 4,000 citizens and 1,000 healthcare professionals, two workshops with experts in London and Boston, and an interview program with leading thinkers in science, investment and policy to outline key calls to action for enabling the healthspan transition.
