Hi everyone, I am gerontologist and aging expert Dr. Jan Vinita White. In 2007, I created this blog as a non-monitized, informational forum for topics related to aging. This forum was created for educational and enrichment purposes... no advertising. All of the postings here have been vetted via scholarly research. There are over 330 copyrighted articles here and I am adding to it all the time. Readers are welcome to read and share but not copy without written permission. Enjoy! Dr. White
