The future of wellness and medicine is becoming more personal, more preventative and far more ambitious.
At the 2026 Global Wellness Summit, leading physicians, scientists and health innovators will examine how precision medicine, women’s health and new longevity models are reshaping what it means to live well for longer.
Andrea Maier, MD, PhD, globally renowned geroscientist, professor of medicine at the National University of Singapore and founder of Asia’s first precision geromedicine clinics, Chi Longevity, will share what’s next in longevity science and personalized healthy aging.
Dan Buettner, founder of the Blue Zones movement and New York Times bestselling author, will reveal the personal bet he is making on the future of longevity. Drawing on decades of research, he will explore why culture, community and everyday lifestyle may matter more than clinical interventions when it comes to living longer and better.
George Gaitanos, MSc, PhD, chief operating and scientific officer of Chenot Group, will challenge conventional thinking about longevity. With more than 30 years of experience across elite sports performance, lifestyle medicine and preventive health, he will argue for a broader, lifelong approach to health.
Christopher Asandra, MD, founder and medical director of AsandraMD in Beverly Hills, will explore the fast-evolving future of women’s health, hormone therapy and personalized longevity medicine, including the significant unmet opportunity across Asia.
Together, these thought leaders will examine why healthspan, the number of years lived with strength, purpose and vitality, is becoming the more meaningful measure of progress.
They join previously announced medical leaders:
Jiri Dvorak, MD, 2026 GWS co-chair, professor of neurology at Schulthess Clinic Zurich and BDMS Wellness Clinic, and former chief medical officer of FIFA, will bring decades of expertise in neurology, sports medicine and injury prevention.
Kenneth R. Pelletier, MD, PhD, clinical professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, and chairman of the American Health Association, will share his expertise in integrative, preventive and personalized health.
Meet the global leaders defining the next era of medicine, longevity and human health at the 2026 Global Wellness Summit this November 10-13 in Phuket.
