An expert in the medical field is back from a conference in Saudi Arabia which focused on healthy aging.
Dr. Mike Wahl visited the Global Healthspan Summit in Riyadh to learn about health and longevity from a global perspective.
Dr. Wahl spoke to Dr. Mehmood Khan, who says longevity needs to start with policymakers to prioritize healthy living initiatives.
“How do we invest behind the science, the breakthroughs? But that’s not sufficient,” said Dr. Khan.
“Bringing that science to the marketplace is converting an invention to an innovation. How do you do that? You need private and public capital to actually take the winners and demonstrate which ones are gonna make a difference in the marketplace.”
