OUR WORK

# Four programmes. Named deliverables, not vague promises.

UKSML's work runs through four programmes: a clinical forum, a network of clinics held to defined standards, an education pathway and a policy taskforce. Each one sets out what it will deliver, and each one strengthens the others.

01 · IN DEVELOPMENT

### Clinical Forum

Monthly virtual grand rounds and case conferences, including where interventions didn't work.

02 · IN DEVELOPMENT

### Clinic Network

Clinics committed to defined standards of evidence, ethics and patient safety.

03 · IN DEVELOPMENT

### Education Pathway

Geroscience, metabolic health and the ethical boundaries of emerging therapies.

04 · ACTIVE

### Policy Taskforce

Policy briefs for commissioners and model governance frameworks for longevity clinics.

01 · CLINICAL FORUM · IN DEVELOPMENT

## Learning from real cases, including the ones that didn't work.

A monthly virtual meeting for members to present and discuss real clinical cases. Every case includes what didn't work and why, because that is where practice improves.

### What it will deliver

A fixed monthly virtual session of grand rounds and case conferences

A standard case template with a required "what didn't work and why" section

A written summary of every session, published in the UKSML journal

The UKSML journal, as the home for forum outputs

02 · CLINIC NETWORK · IN DEVELOPMENT

## A network of clinics that can show their standards.

Doctor-led clinics committed to defined standards of evidence, ethics and patient safety, reviewed against published criteria.

### What it will deliver

Published entry criteria and a simple application and review process

A public directory of network clinics

A monthly Clinic Spotlight feature

A regular feedback round with network clinics

03 · EDUCATION PATHWAY · IN DEVELOPMENT

## Education built in three phases.

Covering geroscience, metabolic health and the ethical boundaries of emerging therapies, the pathway starts with what already exists and builds towards a UKSML qualification.

PHASE 1 · RECOMMEND

### Recommended pathways

A curated list of recommended courses and pathways, mapped to our three themes.

PHASE 2 · DEVELOP

### A UKSML curriculum

Our own programme, with a mentor-matching scheme for members.

PHASE 3 · CERTIFY

### Board certification

A UKSML board certification, with defined eligibility and assessment.

04 · POLICY TASKFORCE · ACTIVE

## Shaping safer longevity care, nationally and beyond.

Policy work to inform national and global health, and practical safety pathways and protocols that clinics can put to use.

### What it will deliver

Policy briefs for commissioners and national bodies

A model governance framework for longevity clinics

Safety pathways and clinical protocols that clinics can adopt

HOW THEY CONNECT

## Four programmes that strengthen each other.

### Forum to journal

Forum cases feed the UKSML journal, which can also publish Taskforce briefs.

### Taskforce to network

Taskforce safety protocols could become an entry standard for the Clinic Network.

### Education to network

Education Pathway certification could become a Clinic Network criterion for the lead clinician.

### Network to forum

Network clinics are a natural source of forum cases and Clinic Spotlights.

MEMBERSHIP
