DUBAI: Dubai will host Next Generation Medicine 2026 from November 7 to 10, bringing clinicians, scientists, researchers, healthcare innovators and investors together to examine developments in longevity medicine, regenerative care and precision health.
The four-day congress will be held at Atlantis The Royal and is being organised by AEON Clinic. According to the event’s official programme, the meeting will focus on how emerging medical research can be translated into clinical practice, while also examining safety, governance and standards in advanced healthcare.
The event comes at a time when Dubai is developing a broader regulatory and economic framework around longevity and advanced healthcare. In June 2026, Dubai issued Law No. 17 of 2026 establishing the Dubai Longevity Authority, which is tasked with developing regulatory frameworks for longevity-related therapies and innovations and overseeing activities spanning research, clinical trials, manufacturing and patient care.
Four days focused on the future of medicine
The Next Generation Medicine 2026 programme covers several areas of emerging healthcare, including ageing science, biomarkers, genomics, multi-omics, epigenetics, mitochondrial medicine, cellular senescence and metabolic health.
The organisers also list discussions on precision medicine, microbiome-based approaches and personalised longevity care. Other sessions will examine regenerative medicine, including stem-cell science, exosomes, tissue repair, regenerative ophthalmology and musculoskeletal applications.
Artificial intelligence is another part of the programme. The congress is scheduled to examine AI-enabled digital twins, clinical decision-support systems and other applications of digital health technology in medicine.
The agenda also extends beyond laboratory research. It includes discussions around clinical governance, patient safety, evidence-based practice and international standards — areas that are increasingly important as experimental and emerging therapies move closer to clinical use.
Dubai’s longevity strategy adds local significance
The congress has a direct connection to Dubai’s expanding focus on longevity and advanced healthcare.
The Dubai Longevity Authority was established in June with a mandate to create a science-based regulatory framework for longevity-related therapies and innovations. The authority is also expected to coordinate with organisations including the Dubai Health Authority, Dubai Health, Dubai Municipality and Dubai Future Foundation.
Dubai’s official healthcare information also identifies healthy life expectancy as a strategic priority, with the emirate aiming to strengthen its healthcare system and position itself among the world’s leading cities for healthy life expectancy.
Separately, Dubai Health and the Dubai Future District Fund announced a 2026 partnership focused on developing a HealthTech ecosystem covering areas such as biotechnology, digital health, AI diagnostics, drug discovery, robotics, medical devices and personalised medicine.
Together, these initiatives provide a wider policy and innovation context for a conference centred on the future of longevity and regenerative medicine.
Who will attend?
The event’s official website says more than 60 experts from more than 20 countries are expected to participate. Listed institutions represented among the speakers include University College London, the National University of Singapore, the University of Edinburgh, Maastricht University and UC Irvine.
The speaker programme includes clinicians, scientists, researchers and healthcare executives working across areas such as regenerative medicine, neuroscience, precision medicine and longevity science.
The congress will also feature masterclasses, workshops, panel discussions, exhibitions and networking sessions for healthcare professionals and other participants.
Reproductive health, women’s health and performance medicine
The programme extends into specialised areas including reproductive longevity, women’s health, andrology and aesthetic longevity.
Sessions are also planned around brain health, neuromodulation, sleep, cognitive resilience, chronic pain, regenerative orthopaedics and sports medicine, reflecting the organisers’ broad definition of longevity care.
The event’s agenda also includes an investor and innovator component, linking medical research with healthcare businesses, startups, investment and emerging models of care.
For Dubai, the congress provides another international platform for discussions around advanced healthcare at a time when the emirate is building dedicated institutions and partnerships in the sector.
Next Generation Medicine 2026 is scheduled to take place at Atlantis The Royal, Dubai, from November 7 to 10, 2026.
