H-SPAN Summit D.C. 2026 | Scaling Longevity: How Policy Must Evolve for Geroscience Interventions

Moderator: Lee Nunley Panelists: Felipe Sierra, Catherine Kaczorowski, Michael Ringel Assume a geroscience intervention works. Almost every system downstream of that result is unprepared for it: no indication to approve it against, no reimbursement code to pay for it, no clinical guideline telling a physician who should get it, and no workforce trained to deliver it. This panel works through what has to change across research funding, regulatory policy, and payment for the field's first success to reach patients rather than stall behind them.
