Does society have a healthy approach to managing health as we age? In this session, we'll meet and discuss the field of longevity medicine. It will feel workshop in focus with two break outs, designed to get you thinking about what you already know and understand. We'll seek to inform you through an informal interview with Peter.

About Peter
Dr Peter Scriven is a seasoned clinician with experience in medicine, surgery, surgical oncology and primary care. Peter also has an extensive research background in the field of proteomics.
He has built and turned around large GP practices and delivered several large digital projects into the healthcare space.
He was awarded the Fellowship of the Royal College of General Practitioners in recognition of his work in health leadership, data and health inequalities.
After 25 years in the NHS, he left having become disillusioned with the lack of quality leadership and ever worsening standards of care. He is now free to pursue other opportunities around his passion for longevity medicine and developing the type of health care that he believes citizens should be able to receive.
Peter is a husband, dad and dog dad, and a keen wildlife and wild places photographer. He is also an inveterate tinkerer of all things mechanical and electronic and has collected more books than he has time to read!
