The University of Copenhagen is excited to announce the Institute for Healthier Living Abu Dhabi (IHLAD) as a sponsor of the 12th Aging Research & Drug Discovery Meeting, the world's largest conference on aging research in the biopharmaceutical industry that will transpire on August 25 - August 29, 2025 on-site at the Ceremonial Hall, University of Copenhagen, and online.

The NEC Symposium is the world's largest meeting dedicated to necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). NEC is a devastating intestinal disease that can affect premature and medically fragile infants in their first weeks and months of life. Every year in the United States, thousands of babies are diagnosed with NEC, and at least one baby dies from NEC every day. The NEC Society's tireless work confronts this by advancing research, education, and advocacy for a world without NEC. Join us at NECsociety.org/NEC-symposium
