Loneliness and social isolation have been identified as major contributing factors to health conditions ranging from cardiac issues, to gene expression, to mental health problems and mortality. With an aging population, families scattered geographically and rising health care costs, loneliness is becoming a significant societal problem. The Agenda looks at the growing biological understanding of loneliness, how digital social networks are affecting social isolation and how technology can help lonely people cope.
