De Economist, 2010 Most of the western world has seen a steady increase in the average lifetime of its inhabitants over the past century. Although the past trends suggest that further changes in mortality rates are to be expected, considerable uncertainty exists regarding the future development of mortality. This type of uncertainty is referred to as longevity risk. This

The Lancet Healthy Longevity, 2021 The fact that people are on average living healthier, longer lives than previously has the potential to be positive for the economy, offsetting the negative economic effects of an ageing society. A longevity economy will see a shift in the mix of sectors in the economy, with both health and education expanding further and new financial products arising.

The Lancet Healthy Longevity, 2021 As the demographic transition enters a new stage of a longevity transition, focus needs to extend beyond an ageing society towards a longevity society. An ageing society focuses on changes in the age structure of the population, whereas a longevity society seeks to exploit the advantages of longer lives through changes in how we age.

Utilization of defined microbial communities enables effective evaluation of meta-genomic assemblies
BMC Genomics, 2017 Background Metagenomics is the study of the microbial genomes isolated from communities found on our bodies or in our environment. By correctly determining the relation between human health and the human associated microbial communities, novel mechanisms

A set of common buccal CpGs that predict epigenetic age and associate with lifespan-regulating genes
iScience, 2022 Summary: Epigenetic aging clocks are computational models that use DNA methylation sites to predict age. Since cheek swabs are non-invasive and painless, collecting DNA from buccal tissue is highly desirable.

Translational immune and metabolic markers of aging in dogs
Scientific ReportsDogs serve as a promising aging model due to their genetic diversity, condensed lifespan, and shared living environment with humans. Alterations in the immune and metabolic parameters are hallmarks of aging in humans, but few studies have investigated ...
