Longevity Cities: How AI & Urban Design Can Extend Your Lifespan | Usman Sheikh

Imagine a city where the air you breathe, the streets you walk, and the technology around you are designed to help you live longer, healthier, and happier.

At Longevity Summit Dublin, Usman Sheikh reveals how our zip code could be a stronger predictor of our lifespan than our genetic code. He explores the vision of Longevity Cities—urban environments powered by AI, IoT, and digital health systems that make wellness a part of everyday life.

Discover how:

AI can unify fragmented medical research to find cures for rare diseases

Digital twins can model health policies before implementation

Green corridors, walkable streets, and clean air become health interventions

Preventive, personalized, and equitable healthcare can thrive at scale

This talk is a powerful call to reimagine cities not just as places to live, but as engines of longevity.
