Ageing and Resilience in the 21st Century
The world is ageing. The number of people 65 and older is projected to triple by mid-century, from 531 million in 2010 to 1.5 billion in
2050. By mid-century, most countries would be trading their young for the old as the share of their population that is 65 and older
surpass those younger than 15. This demographic shift is accompanied by wider changes in the society including continuing low fertility
rates, late marriages, preference for singlehood and migration amongst others.
Academics and policy makers recognize the need for self-reliance of older adults as family sizes shrink and longer lives challenge
financial and social adaptations. Successful adaptation to ageing requires the resilience of the individual, family, and society. With this
conference the organizers aim to explore different ways of defining and measuring resilience as well as ways to enhance resilience at all
levels including physical, psychological and social in older adults and their families. Innovative measures at the policy and programme
levels will be featured.
Themes that will be explored include:
1. What is resilience – explorations of the different types of resilience from physical, mental to finance, social and other dimensions
2. How can or should resilience be measured
3. What are the factors that impact on resilience
4. What are the factors associated with resilience
5. How can resilience be promoted -
20th International Conference on Genetics and Genomic
The International Research Conference is a federated organization dedicated to bringing together a significant number of diverse
scholarly events for presentation within the conference program. Events will run over a span of time during the conference depending on
the number and length of the presentations.
ICCNN 2018: 20th International Conference on Clinical Neurology and Neurophysiology aims to bring together leading academic
scientists, researchers and research scholars to exchange and share their experiences and research results on all aspects of Clinical
Neurology and Neurophysiology. It also provides a premier interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners and educators to
present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions
adopted in the fields of Clinical Neurology and Neurophysiology.
ICGG 2018 has teamed up with the Special Journal Issue on Genetics and Genomics. A number of selected high-impact full text papers
will also be considered for the special journal issues. All submitted papers will have the opportunity to be considered for this Special
Journal Issue. The paper selection will be carried out during the peer review process as well as at the conference presentation stage.
Submitted papers must not be under consideration by any other journal or publication. The final decision for paper selection will be made
based on peer review reports by the Guest Editors and the Editor-in-Chief jointly. Selected full-text papers will be published online free of
charge. -
RNA Biology Symposium 2018 in Singapore
RNA biology has emerged as one of the most influential areas in modern biology. This symposium brings together internationally
renowned experts in the field of RNA biology with the focus on: Non classical RNAs, RNA editing/modifications, RNA splicing, RNA in
disease and cross talk between RNA classes and processes.
The two day conference encompasses a slate of keynote speakers including Ada Yonath (Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel) and Paul
Agris (University of Albany, USA) as well as talks from Ralf Bartenschlager, Jeffrey A. Chao, Ling Ling Chen, Martin Jinek, Mary O’Connell,
Amy Pasquinelli, Igor Ulitsky and many more.
In addition, there will also be selected talks from the submitted abstracts, a poster exhibition, and an award ceremony for outstanding
posters. The awards for the outstanding posters are supported by the Singapore RNA Biology Alliance and the RNA society. -
The Longevity Summit
Asian countries like Japan, Singapore, South Korea and China are facing a demographic crisis. The aged are starting to dramatically
outnumber the young, an issue that affects every aspect of society. Businesses are struggling to adapt to the changing nature of their
workforces, and health care systems are coming under increasing financial strain. While governments are acting — Singapore has
signaled a rise in GST tax and Japan is investing in pension reform and productivity improvements — they may not be doing enough to
prepare their societies for the reality of living to one hundred.
In 2017, for the first time, The Economist brought together Asian business leaders, political decision-makers and health-care
entrepreneurs to discuss how to make longevity a source of healthy innovation. At the Longevity Summit 2018, The Economist will build
on this momentum to foster thinking on the topic of “living to 100”.
The event will answer the following key questions:
● How are the interests of individuals, governments and businesses aligning around longevity?
● Can developing countries establish ‘ageing in place’ infrastructure and community care rather than expensive inpatient hospital
systems?
● How can companies incorporate longevity into their operations?
● What can other countries learn from the policies and ideas already being implemented to ease the burden of ageing around the
region?
● What’s stopping longevity-enthusiasts and entrepreneurs from successfully executing on their business strategies? -
Ageing, Longevity and Health - New Frontiers and Perspectives
It has arrived an era where people are living longer. At this crossroad, the science, art and practice of longevity is alive with a horizon of
possibilities to unlock the longevity dividend. Radical ideas and interdisciplinary approaches have been introduced to understand the
experience of ageing from the perspectives of health, labor, housing transport, urban planning, leisure, social participation, education and
intergenerational relationships. This conference aims to bring together leading thinkers and practitioners and feature some of the best
practices in the field of population ageing.
The Centre for Ageing Research and Education (CARE) is proud to host the 2018 International Alliance of Research Universities (IARU)
Ageing, Longevity and Health (ALH) Scientific and Graduate Student Conference. The conference will feature key research initiatives of
the Ageing, Longevity and Health network and it will be held at the Duke-NUS Medical School on 17 October 2018.
Conference Thematic Focus:
● Healthy Ageing
● Interventions to Support At Risk Older Adults in the Community
● Employment and Employability of Older Adults
● Ageing, Technology and the Environment -
Molecular mechanisms of developmental and regenerative biology
The EMBO Workshop will discuss cell fate decisions during the transition from pluripotency to lineage commitment in early development,
the interactions of stem cells with their niches during lineage specification, and the spatiotemporal control of cell identity during the
differentiation of somatic lineages and the germline.
The complex multi-tissue interactions in organoids will be discussed as a novel experimental model for the understanding of patterning
in the embryo, tissue morphogenesis and organogenesis. New insights into regenerative biology will be presented by investigating
responses to tissue damage or loss and the developmental kinetics leading to aberrant phenotypes. -
