From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dr. Leonid A. Gavrilov is one of the world's leading experts in aging and longevity studies, and the author of a well-respected scientific book, "The Biology of Life Span" (1991), listed in the Encyclopedia Britannica as a recommended reference. He has Ph.D. in genetics and M. Sc. in chemistry, both from the Moscow State University, Russia.

Dr. Gavrilov is the founder of a new reliability theory of aging and longevity.

Leonid Gavrilov is a Principal Investigator of the scientific project "Biodemography of Human Longevity", funded by the National Institute on Aging (USA), and the author of over a hundred of scientific publications on related topic.

Dr. Gavrilov is the Associate Editor of scientific journals "Experimental Gerontology" and "Theoretical Biology and Medical Modelling." He is also an Editorial Board member of scientific journals "Rejuvenation Research" (formely "Journal of Anti-Aging Medicine"), and "The Scientific World Journal."

Leonid Gavrilov is a referee for over 30 scientific journals on aging and longevity studies including AGE (Journal of the American Aging Association), Annals of Human Genetics, Biogerontology, Biology Letters (Royal Society), BioMed Central, Demography, European Journal of Population, Evolutionary Ecology Research (ISSN 1522-0613), Experimental Gerontology, Genus, Gerontology, International Journal of Epidemiology, Journal of Anti-Aging Medicine, Journal of Gerontology (Biological Sciences), Journal of Gerontology (Medical Sciences), Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, Journal of the American Statistical Association, Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, Series A (Statistics In Society), Journal of Theoretical Biology, Mathematical Biosciences, Mathematical Population Studies, Mechanisms of Ageing and Development, Population, Population and Development Review, Population Studies, Rejuvenation Research, Scandinavian Journal of Statistics, Social Biology, Social Science & Medicine, Sociological Methodology, The Scientific World Journal.

He is also an Expert for the National Institute on Aging (USA), the National Research Council at the National Academy of Sciences (USA), the U.S. Civilian Research & Development Foundation (CRDF), Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), the Austrian Science Fund (FWF), and the Mathematics of Information Technology and Complex Systems Network of Centres of Excellence (MITACS-NCE), Canada.

Dr. Gavrilov has been a keynote speaker at several conferences including the International Conference on Longevity (Sydney, Australia, 2004). He gives invited scientific lectures worldwide: England, France, Germany, Japan, Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, Russia, and of course in the United States (including invited presentations at the National Institute on Aging, NIH).

Dr. Gavrilov is a member of the Gerontological Society of America, International Union for the Scientific Study of Population, Population Association of America, and the Scientific Advisory Board of the Supercentenarian Research Foundation.
