Scientists from the Vaccine & Gene Therapy Institute of Florida (VGTI)’s Center for Diseases of Aging (CDA) and Sweden’s Karolinska Institutet plan to host a first-time symposium Innovative Approaches to Diseases of Aging, Feb. 11-12.

The symposium is scheduled for the VGTI Florida’s Tradition Center for Innovation in Port St. Lucie, Fla. The CDA at VGTI Florida and Karolinska Institutet established this research collaboration last year to study diseases of aging.

The CDA’s research teams will report on novel programs in development that target infectious disease, cancers and cardiovascular disease, as well as therapies designed to boost overall immunity and vitality in the aging and elderly.
