The Aging & Gerontology 2026 Global Congress, organised by Sciinov, will be held as a hybrid event based out of Tokyo, Japan, with options to join onsite or virtually. The congress positions itself at the intersection of basic science, clinical medicine and social policy, with a strong focus on mechanisms of ageing and strategies to extend healthy lifespan rather than just longevity. Scientific tracks include cellular and molecular ageing, biomarkers of ageing, senolytics, longevity therapeutics, regenerative medicine, geriatric pharmacology, and interventions to prevent frailty and disability.
Alongside the science, the congress features sessions on healthy ageing policies, community-based programmes for older adults, age-friendly cities, prevention of social isolation and the role of digital health, wearables and AI in supporting active ageing. Case studies from Japan, which has one of the world’s oldest populations, provide practical insights into long-term care insurance, nursing-home management and robotics in care settings.
For Indian clinicians, health-tech founders and policy thinkers, this event offers a chance to learn from leading longevity and age-tech innovators while also presenting India-specific challenges such as multi-generational households, rural ageing, and out-of-pocket healthcare costs. Sciinov’s congresses are known for strong networking, with dedicated time for B2B meetings, poster walks and sponsor showcases, making Aging & Gerontology 2026 in Tokyo a valuable stop for anyone building products or services for the global silver economy.
