Abstract:
In this speech, Koop discussed the direction of biomedical research in private, academic, and government facilities, as well as the application of research findings to the development of medical therapies; demographic change and the prospective aging of the American population; and changes in health policy that would likely be produced both by this demographic change and by the rise in health consciousness among the Baby Boom generation.
