Georgia Centenarian Study (Pt. 1): Opening Credits & Intro to Study


This is an excerpt on the introduction to the Georgia Centenarian Study from the documentary movie, The Georgia Centenarian Study (produced by Dr. Leonard W. Poon and Alan Stecker). You can read more about the Centenarian Study on our website ( www.publichealth.uga.edu ). A keystone research project at the Institute of Gerontology ( www.publichealth.uga.edu ) is the Georgia Centenarian Study (1988 to 2008) of longevity and survival of the oldest old, led by the Institute Director, Leonard W. Poon, and funded by the National Institute of Mental Health and the National Institute of Aging. An unprecedented number of elders in the coming decades will face the risks of disease, frailty, and dependence. The population at the highest risk is the oldest of the old who are increasing at the fastest rate among those who are 65 years and older. Centenarians by definition are survivors who have lived to at least 100, which is more than 20 years longer than the average life expectancy. A fundamental challenge is to understand how centenarians live longer and what specific biological, psychological, and sociological characteristics they possess that would allow them to survive longer. Another basic challenge is whether we could generalize the knowledge gained in our volumes of aging research to individuals of average life expectancy, which is in their 70s (eg, the MacArthur Study), to individuals who live 20 to 30 years longer. At the extreme longevity of the human species <b>...</b>

Centenarians Elizabeth (Rodger) and J. Albert Newton Jr.


She remembers climbing the tower in Davis Hall to ring the bell after a Rhody football victory. He remembers that "almost no one had a car, and so when you were dropped off in September, you didn't get home until the holidays." But what Elizabeth (Rodger) and J. Albert Newton Jr. remember most is the beauty and intimate feel of the Kingston campus of Rhode Island State College (now URI) in the 1930s. Elizabeth, now 100 years old, and Albert 99 and three-quarters, have memories of their college days that are as fresh as any senior who graduated last spring from URI.

I have not seen any vegetarian centenarian. I prefer plant-based foods over animal foods myself. I might tell you that my grand father lived for 101 years or so and my grandmother died at 99 years or so. They both loved eggs and consumed yogurt and other dairy products almost daily.

How Will We Care for Six Million Centenarians by 2050?


There's no doubt that people are living longer these days. In 1950 only 3000 people on Earth were over the age of 100. By the year 2050, six million people may reach that century mark. What will healthcare look like for this generation? Global aging will require us to adopt a very different healthcare model, according to Intel Fellow Eric Dishman. He says healthcare reform will revolve around what he calls the 4 C's: complexity, coordination, collectivity and community. Let's hear from Eric why considering each of the 4C's is critical for managers designing tomorrow's IT systems.

Instead of knitting or playing bingo Kathleen Kit Connell, known as Kit, spends two hours a day tapping away at her favourite console. And the grandmother-of-one, who still lives independently, said she has used the Nintendo DS Lite, so much she even wore out her first console and had to replace the computer. Kit, who according to the game has the mental age of 64, said: "It's absolutely super. I don't feel a day over 80. "I can't speak highly enough of it.
