Aging and Sleep is an international virtual conference dedicated to sleep medicine research in older adults. Since 2010, the Aging and Sleep international conferences have been held every two/three years in Europe with up to 400 delegates participating from 20 countries.  Participants include physicians, research investigators, trainees, sleep technicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals, as well as policy makers and media.

This year, the Aging and Sleep conference will be held virtually. The conference will be held online on November 9-12, 2020. 

The conference aims to offer you a diverse and high-quality scientific program with contribution from world renowned physicians and researchers in the fields of geriatrics, Alzheimer’s disease, sleep disorders, pulmonary medicine cardiology, psychiatry and neurosciences.
