Tan MD Singapore Robert Tien MD, MPH Taiwan Fred Vagnini MD USA Luis Vitetta PhD Australia Lynette Yong MD, MBBS England Educational Affiliates The American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine (A4M) Leads The World Again!!! TM The A4M World Congress on Anti-Aging Medicine is the largest and most influential academic and industry event worldwide in the space of preventative medicine and bio-medical technologies. This new medical specialty ($30 billion Anti-Aging US Marketplace-Dateline NBC, 2001) , is expected to grow to $41.94 Billion by 2006, reflecting an average annual rate (AAGR) of 9% (“Drugs and Cosmetics for Aging Boomers,” Business Communications Company, Inc., 2002) . A4M, which began its mission in 1993 with just 12 physicians, has now grown into a worldwide international medical society with representation in over 70 countries. Our Academy has trained over 30,000 new physicians in its hands-on scientific, clinical and academic programs, and today influences over 100,000 health professionals via its educational training programs, seminars, board certification programs, videos, website, textbooks, and outreach programs. Beyond this, the physicians of A4M, and the advocacy of aging intervention and biomedical research, has brought millions of new consumers to the realization that “Aging Is Not Inevitable”. "Today's mature adults (boomers) control more than $7 trillion in wealth in the United States" (Harvard Business 70% of all U.S. wealth. Further, they bring in $2 trillion in annual income, and account for 50% of all discretionary spending", notes Ken Dychtwald PhD (Associated Press,March 7, 2004). Review, March 2004) , “or In 1990 it was nearly unthinkable for a respected scientist to suggest that physiologic aging metabolism could be manipulated, slowed, or reversed with drug or biomedical interventions. Today anti-aging biosciences are the rage, with great advances in nanotechnology, genomic research, bio-identical HRT, gene therapy, stem cells, cloning, biomarker testing of aging, and human augmentation. A4M in no small way is responsible for the advances by creating an environment of academic and clinical freedom to allow doctors to combat aging as a disease. In the process we have helped create a rapidly expanding multi-billion dollar industry of which the 12th Annual World Congress on Anti-Aging Medicine 2004 is the “place to be” centerpoint for the real players in this, the next great primary care medical specialty. We invite you to attend and make your mark in the fastest growing new medical specialty, among the most influential physicians, scientists,educators, industrialists, investment bankers and journalists from around the world. Join us in Chicago August 20-22, and be part of a new paradigm of aging.

Stem Cells-The Latest Research Breakthroughs Major advances in stem cell research are now shaping the possibilities of this revolutionary potential therapy. Defined will be the latest clinical research findings, and the role of stem cells in aging, and aging intervention. The areas of tissue regeneration, organ replacement, growth of new cell lines, and what impact this may have on your practice in 2004 and beyond. Advanced MRI-CT-PET Scanning Technologies Advances in radiologic diagnostics and imaging techniques are providing greatly enhanced three-dimensional MR imaging. Virtual reality displays now allow for virtual exploration of previously invasive procedures. This is having great impact on our ability for the early diagnosis for cancer, heart disease, and other aliments. Newest devices and technologies profiled, and where the technology is headed. Nanotechnology: Genomes, Nanobots, Biobots –Impact on 21st Century Medical Technology Explosive advances in biomedical technology in the field of Nanotechnology and nanopharmaceuticals may well revolutionize medicine as we know ittoday. Bacterial TM genomes allow us to treat infections, and to understand the molecular basis for genetic diseases. Biobots, essentially bacteria and eukaryotic cells with programmed genomes, may enable any array of therapies such as DNA modification to lead to designer organs and tissues. Medical Robots, Cyborg and human Augmentation, Nanabots,bacteria-sized machines assembled with molecular nanotechnology, could allow engineered custom treatments for patients based on their genetic makeup. Aging Vision Repair and Regeneration Lasix® and computer aided surgical repair of visual deterioration in the aging eye. Nutritional and anti-oxidant therapy for slowing macular degeneration and cataract formation. Heavy Metal Detoxification/Chelation Techniques for removal of fat soluble toxins that poison cellular energy mechanisms, are associated with increased risk of carcinogenesis and cardiac dysfunction. Olympic Anti-Aging techniques and Human Augmentation 2004 being an Olympic Year for Athens, Greece, we explore new technologies being employed by athletes to go beyond what the human body was thought capable. The bionic man and genetically manipulated ‘Super Athlete’ is not far off, and world class athletes have been known to employ everything from customized drugs, to implants, to infusion of banned substances to increase performance. How does one address the delicate cross pollination of anti-aging therapies and Elite Athlete modalities. Anti-Aging Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy and Custom Compounded Pharmaceuticals Hormone replacement therapy for specific deficiencies is a rational medical basis of anti-aging medicine in perspective of aging as the neuro-endocrine system declines. Various biological and functional ‘Pauses’ can be reversed by replacing deficient hormones: Somatopause by growth hormones, Menopause by estrogen, etc. Other natural substances such as flavones, phytoestrogens, and herbs can also have their effect in alleviating hypo-symptoms or prevent possible long-term consequences of hormonal deficiency. Aside from clinical improvement, objective biomarkers should show a change in their levels before and after a specific HRT program. Effect of HGH and Testosterone on Life Expectancy: Is Cancer an issue? There is much debate whether or not maintaining growth hormone (HGH) or Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) levels, consistent with those normally associated with the average 40-45 year old, will extend life expectancy. At this time extensive documented cases for the association of cancer and HGH administration are lacking direct association. Latest research data on HGH and testosterone. Melatonin Update 2004: Mechanisms of Action and Application in Human Clinical Practice Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytrptamine) is the main hormonal product of the vertebrate pineal gland. Melatonin acts through specific receptors. In humans, melatonin receptors are highly expressed in districts involved in sleep cycles. Latest findings on uses of melatonin for cancer treatment and insomnia. Reversing Obesity with Hormone Replacement Therapies: Practical Applications in Your Anti-Aging Practice Behind most types of obesity lie hidden hormone deficiencies and imbalances. Correcting the individual causes of obesity through appropriate hormone supplementation, and an adapted diet can efficiently help the patient to recover his/her ideal body weight and physical appearance in a healthy manner. Specific hormone replacement therapies are presented for treating different types of obesity. Marketing Your Anti-Aging Practice and Medical Spa Facility With the rapid growth and competition of anti-aging clinics and Medical Spa facilities, effective management, organization, set up, equipment placement, sales and marketing, and treatment modalities have become much more important. Such basics of facility design, how to use design professionals, marketing materials, media exposure, utilization of the web, and how to budget, are key. Successful models for such operations are provided. Functional & Biological Markers of Aging The various laboratory biomarkers of aging for each organ system with a focus on how the physician can use them for analysis in clinical antiaging treatment protocols. Emphasis will be placed on understanding the biomarkers, “state of the art” laboratory testing methods, and how to optimize metabolic functions to maximize body functions.
