European Advanced Specialized Course
LONGEVITY MEDICINE
Foundations for professional practice.
[MDs ONLY]
The Specialization Course in Longevity Medicine is a premier training program, specifically designed for medical professionals who wish to integrate the most advanced knowledge of biology and clinical practice to promote healthy longevity into their daily practice. The goal is to qualify the professional figure of the Longevity MD Specialist by providing comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic training, focused on early diagnosis, prevention of chronic non-communicable diseases, treatment of processes related to cellular senescence, and the restoration of the patient’s biological balance and physiological capabilities.
The course is divided into two sequential and independent modules, each of which culminates in a final exam that guarantees the acquisition of training credits. Access to Module 2 (Therapies) is strictly linked to passing the Module 1 (Diagnostics) exam, thus ensuring rigorous educational progression based on solid scientific foundations.

Two independent and coordinated modules
Module 1: Longevity Medicine Diagnostics
This module is entirely dedicated to exploring the biological mechanisms of aging and acquiring the skills necessary for a thorough and personalized diagnostic assessment of the patient. It provides all the skills needed for the clinical use of precision medicine methods in assessing aging hallmarks, individual risk stratification, and patient physiological and cognitive reserve.

Training Credits and Requirements
Successful completion of each module will grant students 30 training credits (CFU/ECTS), conditional on passing each module exam, essential for professional advancement and ongoing training as a doctor.
the training credit certification platform is the one managed and administered by the ECM Office of the University of Pavia,
The sequential nature of the modules ensures that each participant has a complete diagnostic background before tackling the most advanced therapeutic strategies.
The requirements for students to enroll are as follows:
Single-Cycle Master’s Degree in Medicine and Surgery (LM-41) all disciplines
How to participate and how to deliver the course
The course will be delivered in English and in asynchronous mode using the ECM platform https://www.ecmunipv.it/
Student access is managed via personal, non-transferable credentials provided at the time of registration.
Each course includes:
- asynchronous video lesson
- presentation deck of the lesson
- exercise
At the end of each training module, students take a skills certification exam delivered through the platform. Successful completion of the exam allows for the issuance of a certificate of training credits.
The Longevity MD Specialist qualification requires the completion of both training modules and passing the related exams.
Without prejudice to the student’s freedom to concentrate their use of the course according to their weekly availability, the estimated duration of the two modules is as follows:
- Module 1 Diagnostics of Longevity Medicine: 56 hours in total between teaching and exams for an estimated weekly commitment of 19 weeks
- Module 2 Longevity Medicine Therapies: 44 hours in total between teaching and exams for an estimated weekly commitment of 15 weeks
- Internship Module (optional): 80 hours of clinical practice at SoLongevity Healthcenters srl facilities, for a continuous 2-week in-person commitment.
Registration fee and organizational secretariat
The registration fee for Module 1 Diagnostics of Longevity Medicine is €2,500, for Module 2 Therapies of Longevity Medicine is €2,500, including the “clinical internship” segment.
- 20% deposit (€500) upon registration.
- Payment of the balance (€2,000) upon completion of the module.
- This will entitle you to access the training platform.
In case of simultaneous registration for both modules, the following is expected:
- 20% deposit (€900) upon registration, on the discounted value of €4,500
- Payment of a 40% deposit (€1,800) upon starting module 1. This will entitle you to receive the access credentials to the training platform.
- Payment of the balance (€1,800) at the start of module 2. This will entitle you to receive the access credentials for the second module.
