IAGG 2017 World Congress of Gerontology and Geriatrics
The Gerontological Society of America was proud to host the 21st International Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics (IAGG) World Congress in San Francisco, July 23-27, 2017. This prestigious event brought together some of the top researchers, clinicians, and industry experts who have dedicated their careers to improving the lives of older adults.
With approximately 2,500 different organizations represented from more than 75 countries, this conference reminds us that there is nothing more powerful than when our community comes together in an open dialogue to reflect on our progress and further initiatives to advance healthy aging.
There were many diverse and dynamic speakers, who provided in-depth insight, actionable steps and practical tools for increasing innovation, investment, education and outreach in our field. We are pleased to share many of the PowerPoint presentations from the conference, program abstracts, and the Bridge Blogs written by some of the top names in the field of aging.
