#14 - Is Biomedical Research the Right Road to Healthy Aging?

Original Webcast Date: May 18th, 2004 3 p.m.

The U.S. invests billions in medical research at the NIH, but Phillip Longman, a senior fellow of the New America Foundation, says our aging population would benefit more from low-tech wellness and life-style improvements. Patrick White of the Association of American Universities will call for maintaining and even expanding upon the current medical research paradigm. Join the action when strategies clash for increasing health in aging populations. Morton Kondracke, executive editor of ROLL CALL, and co-host of Fox New Channel's "Beltway Boys," will moderate. SAGE Crossroads is an interactive live event sponsored by the Alliance for Aging Research and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
