Multiple PI of NIA-funded Long Life Family Study (a study of families clustering for exceptional longevity) and the NIA funded Centenarian Project of the Longevity Consortium (omics of exceptional longevity and discovering underlying mechanisms and possible therapeutics for healthy aging and longevity). Numerous publically available resources are and will be made available as these studies progress. I've directed the New England Centenarian Study since 1995 which includes a the largest bio and data repository in the world for supercentenarians (n=175) as well as a large number of semi-supercentenarians (ages 105-109, N~600) and centenarians (ages 100-104 N~1500).
