About SAGE Crossroads

SAGE Crossroads is the premier online forum for emerging issues of human aging. The onset of the senior boom, coupled with new discoveries in aging-related science and technology, is setting the stage for great debate on medical interventions and longevity science. SAGE Crossroads aims to be the balanced, "go-to" site for those interested in engaging in lively discussions about the ethical, political, economic, and societal implications of aging-related science. At SAGE Crossroads, visitors are able to listen, watch, read about, and engage with prominent experts in the field of aging.

Launched in March 2003 by the Alliance for Aging Research and the American Association for the Advancement of Science (publishers of Science Magazine), SAGE Crossroads provides policymakers, journalists and curious consumers with the opportunity to explore the impact of science and technology on aging.

Site Goals:

SAGE Crossroads aims to:

1. Create an ongoing discussion of the ethical, political, economic and societal implications of modifying human aging.
2. Foster a virtual community of policymakers, journalists and thought leaders interested in the impact of pace setting research in aging on society.
3. Provide consumers, the media and decision-makers with information that illuminates the issues surrounding aging-related research and outlines both current and alternative approaches to science policy.
