2nd Virtual Congress of the Spanish Society of Geriatrics and Gerontology (SEGG). New challenges for ageing.

This is the second virtual congress organised by the SEGG and we are doing so with the experience gained at the first virtual congress, which served as a learning experience, and with the commitment to increase the number of participants and the scientific level of the first meeting.

Although we are looking forward to holding congresses again that allow the physical presence of the congress participants, which always stimulates human contact and makes professional contact easier, the situation of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in our country obliges us to continue working virtually.

The year 2021 has been presenting us with new challenges for ageing, which are the ones we want to address at this congress.
