Pursuing the longevity dividend: scientific goals for an aging world.
The aging of humanity is about to experience a radical change as the demographic transformation to an older world is approaching its final stage. In recent decades, scientists have learned enough about the biological aging processes that many believe it will become possible to slow aging in humans. We contend that the social, economic, and health benefits that would result from such advances ma...

As people incorporate close others into their extended selves (Aron et al., 1991), they begin to treat others’ actions and outcomes as partially their own. This tendency, in turn, has implications for coordinating goal pursuits with others and for t...
متن کاملMyths, scientific evidence and economic policy in an aging world
The aim of this article is threefold: to show how important the communication of scientific evidence from the economics of aging is in order to demystify popular fallacies; to review where we stand in the more subtle mechanisms behind these fallacies and where more data and research is needed to fully understand the economics of aging; and to emphasize the link between theory, evidence, and pol...
متن کاملScientific Longevity
We have made use of gene expression analysis of peripheral blood (PB) mononuclear cells to develop expression profiles that accurately reflect prior radiation exposure. We demonstrate that expression profiles can be developed that not only predict radiation exposure in mice but also distinguish the level of radiation exposure, ranging from 50 cGy to 1,000 cGy. Likewise, a molecular signature of...
متن کاملPursuing abstract goals in the game of Go
Reasoning and planning at di¤erent levels of abstraction is an important skill in the game of Go, for both human and computer players. Over the years, adversarial planning approaches have become increasingly popular for dealing with large search spaces of two player games such as Go. This article describes a di¤erent approach to adversarial planning, based on an analysis of human Go playing. Ab...
