90% of deaths are caused by preventable lifestyle diseases, but when we look at what we spend on healthcare in New Zealand, less than 1% of the health budget is spent on health prevention. At the Future of Medicine Conference 2023 Professor Grant Schofield uses AI to explain how hormetic medicine is the future of medicine.

About Professor Grant Schofield
Grant Schofield is the Professor of Public Health at Auckland University of Technology, director of the University’s Human Potential Centre, former Chief Scientific Adviser to the Ministry of Education in New Zealand, co-author of four best-selling books and Chief Science Officer for PREKURE.

Professor Grant’s career has focused on preventing the diseases of modern times, and seeing what it takes to help people live a long, healthy and happy life. He lives and breathes the motto “be the best you can be”, and sees this as a game-changer for the health system – capable of transforming the current health (sickness) model, to one in which we aspire to be well. He is redefining public health as the science of human potential; the study of what it takes to have a great life.

Grant is well known for thinking outside the box and challenging conventional wisdom in nutrition and weight loss, as well as physical activity and exercise. He brings his fluency across several scientific disciplines – from human physiology to psychology, to peak performance – to his role at PREKURE, where he delivers world-class training in lifestyle medicine.
