Location: Zoom Live Webinars

 

Aging is an inevitable part of life. The aging process is a major risk factor and driver of common chronic diseases and a key determinant of a person’s lifespan. It’s impossible to stop aging, but it’s entirely possible to make the aging process slowly and healthily and to make the body 10 or even 20 years younger than the actual age, thereby prolonging the lifespan or even living beyond 100 years! Therefore, anti-aging has become a hot topic in current medical research and public health, and anti-aging products are also popular everywhere.

However, which nutrients or substances really have an anti-aging effect? Is there any scientific basis for it? If so, is the evidence sufficient? These are the questions we must address.

The International Society for Omega-3 Research (ISOR) together with eChinaHealth will hold an online international forum on “Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Anti-aging” on June 18, 2022 and will invite the world’s top scientists and experts in this field to discuss the scientific evidence at multiple levels ranging from molecular studies to human trials for the anti-aging effects of omega-3 fatty acids. This will be a unique opportunity for individuals and businesses interested in anti-aging.

 

Main Topics

  • The biological basis for the anti-aging effects of omega-3 fatty acids
  • Molecular mechanisms and biomarkers for omega-3’s anti-aging effects
  • Evidence from animal studies
  • Evidence from human studies
  • Epidemiological evidence
  • Comprehensive evaluation and directions for future R&D (Panel discussion)

 

Organized by the International Society for Omega-3 Research (ISOR) & eChinaHealth
(Partner with the International Journal of Molecular Sciences, IF 5.923)


Scientific Program

Within the half-day program, 9 expert speakers will present a comprehensive set of high quality data, including 5 interventional trials (3 of which are RCT), 4 large cohort studies, numerous epidemiological observations and multi-omics analysis studies. Among them, two human studies are from the laboratory of Nobel laureate Dr. Elizabeth H. Blackburn. Certainly, these presentations will bring up exciting information for you to evaluate the anti-aging effects of omega-3 fatty acids.

Location: Zoom Live Webinars

 

It has been exactly 50 years since the discovery of the health effects of omega-3 fatty acids (Omega-3), Now, Omega-3 has become the most intensively studied nutrient for its diverse health benefits. Nearly 60,000 scientific research papers have been published so far covering all aspects of Omega-3, from biochemistry to genetic engineering technology, from healthy food to drug, from prenatal and postnatal care to anti-aging effects, showing its extraordinary importance for human health.

This congress will highlight the major discoveries and technological breakthroughs in the past 50 years of Omega-3 research, showcase the cutting-edge technologies and innovative products in this field, and lay out the direction and prospects of Omega-3’s research and development for the years to come.

The WCOST will bring together a diverse array of people — including the world’s top and most influential scientists, entrepreneurs, policy-makers and responsible persons of relevant industries and institutions in the field of Omega-3. This congress will present an ecological chain of Omega-3 in an all-embracing manner and its role and impact in building a large integrated system of science and technology, public health, industry and economy.

The WCOST will be the most comprehensive and influential meeting of its kind, and a landmark event in the history of the Omega-3 field.

The scientific program of WCOST2021 features keynote speeches and world renowned experts presentations covering the major breakthroughs and innovations of the field, recent exciting discoveries on basic research, latest clinical trials results, new technologies, and new products, etc. Interactive expert panel discussions will also be featured.

This event is where you get the most exciting, unusual and interesting presentations about Omega-3, and that can spark collaborations that may have otherwise not have happened. Surely, the WCOST congress is a must-attend event for all the people who are interested in omega-3.

The field of omega-3 research has evolved rapidly in recent years and its potential applications have become more diverse and significant for public health. At the same time, new challenges and issues have emerged in both the scientific and public acceptance of omega-3. The aim of the International Society for Omega-3 Research (ISOR) is to bring together highly active investigators in the field, particularly young scientists interested in omega-3, to exchange ideas/thoughts, establish collaborations, adopt new technologies, and most importantly, promote and maintain a high standard of omega-3 research. The inaugural ISOR symposium will provide a platform for sharing research progress from the up-and-coming generation of investigators and highlight the frontier of the field of omega-3.

 

Main topics include:

  • Current Challenges and Opportunities for Omega-3 Research
  • Lipidomics and Biomarker Discovery
  • Unique Animal Models for Omega-3 Research
  • Novel Mechanisms for the Action of Omega-3 Metabolites
  • Gut Microbiota and Chronic Disease
  • New Clinical Applications for Omega-3
