The Ageing of Man and Animal: crafting longer, happier and healthier lives for an ageing population of Pets and People through collaborative translational approaches

 
Sponsored by: 

 

Zoetis, the world’s leading animal health company, invites you to explore how human and animal health can converge for the mutual benefit of people and companion animals. While technological advancements in human and veterinary nutrition and medicine have helped to extend the lifespans of humans and pets alike, with a larger population of elderly patients we witness a corresponding rise in the incidence of certain chronic and age-related health conditions. Innovative solutions to enhance the care and quality of life for both people and our animal companions are more necessary than ever.
This session will explore how cutting-edge innovations in human medicine can be harnessed to enhance the quality of life of aging pets, and how data generated in animal patients can accelerate the development of human medicines. As we delve into the shared pathways of chronic diseases between pets and people, we will discuss the potential for startups and innovators in the human health sector to contribute to the progression of veterinary medicine while creating additional revenue streams for their businesses. We will discuss the scientific and regulatory parallels that guide the development of medicines across both industries, emphasizing the mutual benefits that arise from this interdisciplinary approach.
Join us to discover how the latest breakthroughs in human health can pave the way for transformative therapies in animal care, ultimately leading to a longer, happier and healthier future for our cherished four-legged companions.
