美国老年医学学会在马里兰州的贝塞斯达召开了一次会议，以探索衰老的模型和研究。这是三个会议中的第二个，由国家老龄研究所提供U13赠款，以帮助接受早期医学/外科专家过渡到老龄研究(GEMSSTAR)的补助金的人将老年医学纳入他们的专业。认识到老龄化是多种慢性病和与年龄相关的韧性丧失的最大风险因素，会议组织者将科学会议的重点放在了针对与年龄相关的机制如何延缓、预防或逆转老年综合征、与年龄相关的慢性病和韧性丧失。综述了研究衰老模型的理论基础，以及研究人类衰老的研究设计、策略和挑战。本文提供了U13会议系列报告的完整会议报告《老龄化的模型和研究：报告》的摘要，并总结了旨在支持GEMSSTAR获奖者发展其专注于老龄化研究的研究生涯的关键带回家的信息(完整报告的补充文本)。J am Geriatr Soc 67：428-433,2019年。
The American Geriatrics Society convened a conference in Bethesda, Maryland, to explore models and studies of aging. This was the second of three conferences, supported by a U13 grant from the National Institute on Aging, to aid recipients of Grants for Early Medical/Surgical Specialists Transition to Aging Research (GEMSSTAR) in integrating geriatrics into their specialties. Recognizing that aging is the largest risk factor for multiple chronic diseases and age-related loss of resilience, the conference organizers focused scientific sessions on how targeting age-related mechanisms can delay, prevent, or reverse geriatric syndromes, age-related chronic diseases, and loss of resilience. The rationale for studying models of aging as well as study designs, strategies, and challenges of studying human aging were reviewed. This article provides a summary of the full conference report, Models and Studies of Aging: Report from the U13 Conference Series, and summarizes key take-home messages that were designed to support GEMSSTAR awardees in developing their research careers focused on aging research (see supplementary text for the full report).
