Hyperdifferential Conference Tokyo 2026 Details

There are several regions in Japan with high longevity, suggesting the influence of lifestyle and culture, including dietary habits, behind this trend. In recent years, the development of technologies to quantify biological age by analyzing DNA modifications has made it possible to assess the impact of habits and interventions on aging. In this session, starting from actual research cases using epigenetic clock, we will summarize the science and potential of this technique and look forward to the next steps in the control of aging from the interface of research, industry, and society.

We will have a program of discussions with researchers, ventures, and companies from a variety of perspectives, not limited to the themes of this session. For more information,Conference Websitefor more information.
