Friday 29 May from 5pm to 6pm

Rethink health across your lifespan with A New Horizon of Health, a panel presented by Lilly offering a compelling vision of the future of health – one that is preventative, personalised and human-centered.

Join host and award-winning journalist Sana Qadar in a robust discussion with leading neuroscientist Professor Joel Pearson, mental health advocate Sophie Scott OAM, diagnostics and preventive care expert Dr Steven Lu, and Andrew Adams, VP of Molecule Discovery at Lilly.

As populations age and healthcare systems come under increasing strain, the question facing society is no longer simply how long we live, but how well we live, too. Together, these forward-thinking voices in science, innovation and culture will discuss shifting our focus from treating illness to proactively building, sustaining, and extending years lived in good health.

Exploring proactive healthcare, the panel will discuss how deeper insights into your own unique biology can help you understand risk, resilience and opportunities via innovative solutions.

From breaking down advances in prevention and treatment to the responsible use of technology and AI to connect data, care and decision-making into smarter, more personalised systems, they’ll examine how to translate this into meaningful action, including assessing lifestyle factors such as movement, nutrition and sleep in supporting long term wellbeing. 

The panel will also consider the broader cultural shifts underway surrounding ageing, mental health and what it means to live a well-lived life – and why reimagining care matters most in the decades that shape quality of life.

Fascinating and eye-opening, A New Horizon of Health will provoke the way you think of health span throughout your life.
