New Delhi: ISIC Multispeciality Hospital, New Delhi, in association with the Geriatric Orthopaedic Society of India (GOSI), will host the 13th International GOSICON 2026 from 23rd to 25th October 2026, centred on the theme “Age with Movement, Move with Age.”
A key highlight of the conference will be the release of the “Geriatric Manual: Practical Guide for Healthy Ageing” during the inaugural ceremony on 24th October 2026 at 6:00 PM. The manual will be released by Hon’ble Shri Om Birla, Speaker, Lok Sabha, the Chief Guest for the occasion.
The practical, evidence-based manual focuses on helping older adults lead healthier, active and independent lives. It covers important aspects of healthy ageing, including nutrition, exercise, mental well-being, fall prevention, medication safety, rehabilitation, caregiver support and maintaining independence. Its approach is built around five key pillars: Stay Active, Eat Well, Prevent, Stay Positive and Stay Connected.
The manual has been edited by Dr John Ebenezar, Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon and Founder of GOSI, and Dr Gururaj Sangondimath, Director, Spine Surgery, ISIC Multispeciality Hospital, New Delhi.
Through GOSICON 2026, healthcare professionals will come together to further conversations around mobility, independence and quality of life among older adults, reinforcing the message: “Healthy Ageing Is Possible. Independence Is Priceless.”
