Regardless the global demographic tendencies of life duration increase, longevity and super longevity remain quite understudied and non-fully understood population. Broader studies needed to understand, what it means to live by 100-year old. Lots of studies are about the longevity predictors and ways of ageing, that could be therapeutical targets not simply for life duration, but life quality as well, and medical-social geriatrics. The program “A Centenarian”, being conducted by leading scientific groups inRussia, is approaching a country unique medical, scientific and social data.
