ARDD has grown to become the largest and most important conference in longevity biotechnology. Each year, ARDD brings together a unique mix of academic luminaries, biotech innovators, investors, top pharmaceutical executives, physicians, and related health care professionals to discuss the latest advancements in aging research and the event provides unique opportunities to connect with brilliant minds, fostering collaboration and showcasing groundbreaking research in the field.
“We are extremely honored to host Professors Meldal and Levitt at ARDD2025. Their Nobel prize winning discoveries have been instrumental for drug development and molecular design in part through modelling of proteins and molecules, and in part through the ability to easily create new molecules. It is therefore a great pleasure that they are joining our conference.” said Morten Scheibye-Knudsen, MD, Ph.D., University of Copenhagen.
“We are really excited for ARDD2025, especially with Nobel Laureates Morten Meldal and Michael Levitt joining us. Their groundbreaking contributions have had a lasting impact on drug discovery, and having them at the conference is sure to make it an unforgettable experience.” said Daniela Bakula, Ph.D., University of Copenhagen.
“For 12 years, the Aging Research and Drug Discovery (ARDD) forum grew in size and in quality. It became the world’s main platform for academia-pharma-startup-investor partnership and dialogue. In 2025, the conference will feature the Nobel laureates, pharmaceutical industry executives and healthcare delivery leaders. ARDD is a unique platform for advancing longevity biotechnology around the world.” said Alex Zhavoronkov, Ph.D., founder and CEO of Insilico Medicine.
“At ARDD we strive to highlight the cutting-edge research and clinical applications in a new discipline of healthy longevity medicine.

About Aging Research for Drug Discovery Conference
At ARDD, leaders in the aging, longevity, and drug discovery field will describe the latest progress in the molecular, cellular and organismal basis of aging and the search for interventions. Furthermore, the meeting will include opinion leaders in AI to discuss the latest advances of this technology in the biopharmaceutical sector and how this can be applied to interventions. Notably, this year we will have a special day called Longevity Medicine Day, specifically for physicians where the leading-edge knowledge of clinical interventions for healthy longevity will be described. ARRD intends to bridge clinical, academic and commercial research and foster collaborations that will result in practical solutions to one of humanity's most challenging problems: aging. Our quest to extend the healthy lifespan of everyone on the planet.
