WELCOME TO THE ROBERT N. BUTLER COLUMBIA AGING CENTER VIRTUAL SERIES | AI + HEALTHY LONGEVITY
Click here for full listing of the Columbia Aging Center "AI + Healthy Longevity" Seminar Series
Our current series is dedicated to "AI + Healthy Longevity." The rise of artificial intelligence is set to transform health research, offering unprecedented opportunities for innovation, accuracy, and efficiency. As AI becomes more deeply integrated into research and healthcare, its applications hold the power to unlock new ways of improving health outcomes across the life course – particularly in later life. From predicting risks to preventing disease and preserving function, the use of AI to promote healthy longevity is only just beginning. Yet alongside these opportunities come important challenges: ensuring data quality, promoting transparency, and addressing ethical concerns. The Columbia Aging Center’s 2025–2026 virtual seminar series, AI + Healthy Longevity, will spotlight these critical issues. Through cutting-edge talks by leading experts – from population health to medical sciences –this series will explore how AI is shaping the future of aging research and advancing the quest for healthier, longer lives.
Join us ONLINE on October 30 at noon, for the next in a series focusing on the applications of AI in aging. Details and registration link below.

Title: Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence and Technology for Aging
Abstract: Aging research is at a turning point, where advances in artificial intelligence and technology are transforming our ability to detect, predict, and intervene in age-related decline. This talk will highlight the work of the Johns Hopkins Artificial Intelligence & Technology Collaboratory for Aging Research (AITC) and the Gerotech Incubator Program in accelerating translation from lab to life, developing and validating human-centered AI solutions that promote independence, resilience, and healthspan in older adults. Examples from AITC supported pilots will be share and will include multimodal frailty models, digital biomarkers, and interdisciplinary frameworks connecting engineering, medicine, and community engagement.
