Welcome from the Co-Chairs
TARGETING METABESITY 2021 took on some of the most critical issues in healthcare today:
Metabesity 2021 gathered together stellar speakers from multiple disciplines, including science and medicine, behavioral science, government regulation, policy, reimbursement, industry and capital markets, patient advocacy, boomer and senior lifestyle, digital health and age-technology, and many others. Targeting Metabesity is an ongoing call to action and a silo-busting conversation for tractable steps today to address major healthcare challenges! THE HEALTH AND QUALITY OF LIFE OF BILLIONS OF HUMANS AND TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN SAVINGS OPPORTUNITY, ARE AT STAKE. Expanding evidence supports that the major chronic diseases—cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, obesity, cancer, and the aging process itself—have common metabolic roots and thus may be susceptible to shared solutions. Metabesity names this constellation of conditions. Alexander Fleming, MD, and Lawrence Steinman, MD Targeting Metabesity 2020 Co-Chairs |
