The inaugural Global Conference on Gerophysics convened 160 researchers across physics, biology, computation, and medicine in Singapore on March 5-6, 2025. With 31 speakers, the two-day event explored how physical laws, and quantitative principles unify aging science, linking biological processes to longevity patterns. Sessions covered diverse aging aspects, from developmental stages to species comparisons. The meeting showcased innovative methods to study aging, emphasizing data-driven insights. A central theme was bridging theory and experiment to advance understanding. It concluded with a consensus around (1) shared multi-modal datasets; (2) physics-based definitions for "aging", "rejuvenation", and "healthspan"; (3) models predicting intervention outcomes; and (4) translational links between non-human species and human research. These priorities outline a practical path for a quantitative, predictive Gerophysics, building on the 2025 conference's insights to shape future aging research.
