Are Stem Cells the Key to Healthy Longevity?

Dr. Gordana Kalan Živčec, MD, reveals all at the Conference on Healthy Longevity.

On Tuesday, October 8, 2024, the Society for Vital Life Extension of Slovenia organized the Conference on Healthy Longevity. The event took place in the Large Lecture Hall of the Jožef Stefan Institute in Ljubljana and online. It was part of the Information Society 2024 multiconference, which has been bringing together various topics on technological and social issues for 27 years.

Our representative, Dr. Gordana Kalan Živčec, MD, presented her method and the 8 pillars of health—what we can do ourselves and what opportunities medicine offers.

Her presentation attracted great interest, as stem cells represent one of the most innovative approaches for tissue regeneration and treating numerous degenerative and autoimmune diseases. She highlighted key benefits, from their impact on revitalization to their potential for improving quality of life and extending lifespan.

Stem cell therapy is increasingly recognized as a revolutionary treatment, offering numerous advantages, particularly in the field of regenerative medicine and in combating aging. Dr Gordana Kalan Živčec, MD, emphasized the importance of research in this area, showcasing our latest solutions and results.

The conference highlighted the following key points:

  • Presentation of innovative solutions for healthy longevity.
  • Emphasis on research and technologies that enable tissue regeneration and slow aging processes.
  • Discuss new approaches made possible by stem cell therapy and their future use in medicine.

Dogodek je bil podprt s strani priznanih sponzorjev, Medicinski center Crystal, GaiaCell in Medex, ter organiziran pod pokroviteljstvom International Longevity Alliance. Zaradi velikega zanimanja je bil dostopen tako v živo kot prek spleta.

The event was supported by renowned sponsors, including the Crystal Medical Center, GaiaCell, and Medex, and was organized under the patronage of the International Longevity Alliance. Due to high interest, it was available both in-person and online.

You can still watch the event recordings to learn more about the topics discussed. For more information, visit the official event website: Conference on Healthy Longevity. Our contribution to the conference is another step forward in becoming a leader in stem cell therapy and regenerative medicine, raising awareness about extending longevity healthily. We look forward to continuing our work in this rapidly evolving field and sharing our knowledge and experience.
