CECAD speaker Björn Schumacher was a guest at the Körber Foundation in Hamburg on May 29 2026 to discuss the topic “Living a Longer, Healthier Life: What Really Works?”. His presentation drew an audience of about 120 people. The entire interview is also available as a video.

In an engaging and lively conversation with science journalist Jens Schröder, Prof. Björn Schumacher spoke about the health trends of longevity and clarified which measures for healthy aging are scientifically proven and which are more wishful thinking. At the end, Björn Schumacher answered questions from the approximately 120 interested guests and also shared the Healthy Aging tips he personally follows.

We are very grateful that we were not only able to deliver the presentation to the live audience but can also share the entire conversation as a video. We hope this will help us inspire even more people to engage with the science of healthy aging.
