    Aging is the single largest risk factor for most chronic diseases, and thus possesses large socioeconomic interest to continuously aging societies. Consequently, the field of aging research is expanding alongside a growing focus from the industry and investors in aging research. This year's 8th Annual Aging Research and Drug Discovery ARDD) meeting was organized as a hybrid meeting from August 30th to September 3rd 2021 with more than 130 attendees participating on-site at the Ceremonial Hall at University of Copenhagen, Denmark, and 1800 engaging online. The conference comprised of presentations from 75 speakers focusing on new research in topics including mechanisms of aging and how these can be modulated as well as the use of AI and new standards of practices within aging research. This year, a longevity workshop was included to build stronger connections with the clinical community

    Most OECD countries expect growing shortages of highly-skilled labour in the coming two decades, and immigration is viewed as one way of addressing these. Most OECD countries have introduced policies aimed at facilitating the recruitment of such workers in recent years and efforts along these lines can be expected to continue. This report provides an overview of the issues related to the management of highly skilled labour migration

    National audienceLa problématique de la pneumoconiose tient une place particulièrement importante dans le domaine de l'hygiène professionnelle, en ce qui concerne l'industrie extractive française. La communauté scientifique internationale s'intéresse depuis peu à la toxicité des particules fines et ultrafines. Des études récentes ont montré leur rôle potentiel dans le développement des atteintes pulmonaires professionnelles. Les travaux présentés ici ont pour but de déterminer la répartition en taille des poussières de carrières, en terme de concentration massique, de concentration en nombre, mais aussi en terme de morphologie et de composition chimique. Une attention particulière est accordée aux particules submicroniques, et notamment ultrafines. Pour ce faire, un impacteur en cascade basse pression Berner a été mis en oeuvre au sein d'une unité de concassage secondaire et tertiaire. Les échantillons ont été analysés à l'aide d'un microscope électronique à balayage environnemental équipé de la microanalyse X
