The building of longevity medicine happens in small rooms where physicians who move the needle sit across from one another and ask the questions that matter. longevitydocs™ Cannes 2026 is built on this principle. 200+ physicians and 40+ speakers from 30+ countries meet for three days to unite around shared principles. The question is not whether longevity medicine works. The question is what infrastructure, education, and community a physician needs to make it the default practice.
Here are five physicians speaking at Cannes we want you to know. Each represents a node in the network. Together, they are the proof that longevity medicine is having it's moment.
SAEJU JEONG. FOUNDER AND FORMER CEO, NOOM
Building longevity at consumer scale requires psychology before molecules.
Saeju Jeong built behavior-change into a billion-dollar consumer health company. Longevity lives or dies on adherence. Almost no one has cracked behavioral scale like he has. The gap between what works in a clinic and what sticks at the population level is not science. It is psychology. Jeong's framework: intervention, measurement, and feedback loops tight enough to keep patients in the game for years, not weeks.
At Cannes, Jeong will address the operational reality every longevity physician faces. You can build the perfect protocol. If your patient doesn't follow it, the protocol fails. Noom did not win market share by having the most advanced algorithm. It won by understanding that behavior change is not willpower. It is architecture.
"Longevity protocols that don't account for human psychology at every step are not protocols. They are exercises in hope." — Saeju Jeong
SUNITA MISHRA. CHIEF MEDICAL OFFICER, NEKO HEALTH. FORMER CMO, AMAZON CARE
Tech-enabled preventive medicine works. But only if physicians run it.
Sunita Mishra scaled prevention at Amazon Care. Now she runs clinical for Daniel Ek's full-body-scanning preventive clinic, Neko Health. Arguably the most-watched new model in preventive medicine right now. She is a rare operator who has done this twice. Mishra knows the bottleneck. It is not technology. It is the physician who makes the technology matter.
Neko Health pairs continuous full-body imaging with human clinical judgment. The data layer is sophisticated. The architecture is elegant. But the patient outcome lives in the conversation between the Neko physician and the patient. Between measurement and action sits a human decision-maker. That human is irreplaceable.
Mishra will walk through what actually works and what does not work in tech-enabled full-body screening. Which modalities catch the signal? Which drown in noise? What does a patient workflow look like when you have every scan from every angle? How do you synthesize that into a protocol that does not overwhelm the physician or paralyze the patient?
"Data without a physician to synthesize it becomes noise. Scale prevention with the assumption that the physician's clinical judgment is the scarce, irreplaceable resource." — Sunita Mishra, MD
DAWN MUSSALLEM. CHIEF MEDICAL OFFICER, FOUNTAIN LIFE. INTEGRATIVE ONCOLOGIST
The most powerful case for early detection is lived experience.
Dr. Dawn Mussallem is a stage-4 cancer survivor and heart transplant recipient who became a leading integrative oncologist. She left Mayo Clinic to run clinical at Fountain Life. She carries both the clinical authority of a top medical institution and one of the most powerful personal narratives in longevity medicine.
Mussallem knows what aggressive early detection looks like from both sides of the table. She has been scanned. She has been told she has one year to live. She survived. Now she treats patients while carrying the lived understanding that early detection changes the trajectory you get to write.
Her session at Cannes is not theoretical. It is a case for aggressive early detection that leads with evidence and ends with the conviction that comes from having your life saved by the very protocols she now delivers.
"Early detection works because I am standing here to prove it. When you are faced with a patient who might not get a second chance, aggressive early intervention stops being optional and becomes ethical." — Dr. Dawn Mussallem, MD
AMI BHATT. CARDIOLOGIST. CHAIR, FDA DIGITAL HEALTH ADVISORY COMMITTEE
Regulation is moving faster than longevity medicine expects. Be ready.
Dr. Ami Bhatt is a cardiologist who chairs the FDA Digital Health Advisory Committee. She is the intersection of longevity tech and regulation. If you want to understand what is coming for digital health, AI diagnostics, and remote monitoring in medicine, she is the source.
The FDA is not sleeping. The agency is actively shaping how AI-driven longevity diagnostics will be approved, validated, and deployed. Bhatt sits at that table. She sees the trajectories. She knows what the regulators care about: evidence quality, real-world validation, algorithmic transparency, equity in training data.
Longevity physicians who are building with AI need to understand the regulatory landscape now. Not when the FDA shows up at your door with questions. Bhatt's session is a masterclass in how regulators will treat AI-powered diagnostics in longevity medicine.
"The AI tools you are building today will be regulated tomorrow. Understand the regulatory framework before you deploy, not after." — Dr. Ami Bhatt, MD
ZAHI FAYAD. DIRECTOR, BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING AND IMAGING INSTITUTE, MOUNT SINAI
The antidote to hype is deep science.
Dr. Zahi Fayad is a world-leading imaging scientist at Mount Sinai. He brings cardiovascular and molecular imaging expertise that grounds longevity medicine in rigor. The field hypes fast. Fayad does not. He is the scientist who will not say something works until he has measured it.
Sub-clinical disease detection is where imaging is headed. The ability to identify atherosclerotic plaque before it calcifies. The ability to detect molecular markers of disease before symptoms appear. The ability to monitor therapeutic response at the tissue level. Fayad's work shows the precision and predictive power that imaging will deliver in the next decade.
In a field flooded with claims, Fayad represents the standards. Rigorous measurement. Peer validation. Clinical translation. His session answers the question every longevity physician asks: Where is imaging actually going, and which modalities will matter for my patient in five years?
"The cutting edge of imaging is not about better pictures. It is about detecting signal in tissue at the molecular level, before it becomes disease. That is where precision longevity medicine lives." — Dr. Zahi Fayad, PhD, MD
Why These Five
This is a deliberate spread. Saeju Jeong built consumer scale. Sunita Mishra operates the preventive model. Dawn Mussallem carries the clinician's voice and a patient's story. Ami Bhatt sits at the regulatory table. Zahi Fayad grounds the science. Together they cover the money, the model, the message, the rules, and the rigor that longevity medicine requires.
They are not in labs. They are not in conference rooms trading theories. They are in the work. Building. Operating. Treating. Innovating. And they will spend three days with 200+ physicians who are doing the same.
