The International Association of Biomedical Gerontology, 10th Congress

Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence: Reasons Why Genuine Control of Aging may be Foreseeable

Queens' College, Cambridge, England

19-23 September 2003

Thanks to the hard work of Kevin Perrott, audio recordings of the majority of the talks at IABG10 are available as MP3 files, linked from the abstracts page. We have also provided the presentations of as many speakers as possible for download from the same page. The absence of any link generally indicates that the presentation contained unpublished or otherwise confidential material, such that the speaker has withheld their permission to distribute the file. Therefore please do not request copies of unlisted files, as we are unable to provide them.

The text of the original announcement is reproduced below for historical interest.

Confirmed keynote speakers:
 

You are cordially invited to participate in the 10th Congress of the International Association of Biomedical Gerontology (IABG 10), which will be held from 19-23 September 2003 at Queens' College, Cambridge.

The purpose of the IABG is (1) to make the general public more aware of the potential of biomedical aging research to increase the span of healthy productive life and to decrease the social and economic problems of age; and (2) to promote greater communication among the worldwide community of individuals engaged in biomedical aging research.

The congress will continue and extend the superlative quality that IABG meetings have maintained since the Association's founding in 1985. The calibre of these meetings can be seen from the proceedings volumes, which since 1991 have been published as volumes of the Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences:

The meeting will comprise invited talks, short oral presentations of submitted abstracts, and poster sessions. There will be no concurrent sessions. Talks will take place in the Fitzpatrick Lecture Hall. Poster sessions will take place in the new (too new to have an online photo!) conservatory adjacent to the bar. During the first two days of the congress, Wisepress will have a bookstall in the registration area adjacent to the dining hall.

All questions should be directed to the main organiser, Aubrey de Grey.

We look forward to welcoming you to Cambridge for a most exciting and enjoyable meeting.
