Description: This is a paper from the session on Life Expectancy Analysis at the January 15-18, 2023, 2023 Living to 100 Symposium in Orlando, Florida.

Description: Experts in the field of healthy aging discuss new insights and emerging services and ElderTech, such as wearables and passive monitoring devices and virtual therapies, that can prolong a disability-free lifestyle. What is effective? How do we get people to engage in activities that are good for them in the long run?

Description: Dr Horvath's research lies at the intersection of aging research, epidemiology, chronic diseases, epigenetics, genetics, and systems biology. He works on all aspects of biomarker development with a particular focus on genomic biomarkers of aging. He developed a highly accurate multi-tissue biomarker of aging known as the epigenetic clock. Dr Horvath developed systems biologic approaches such as weighted gene co-expression network analysis which lend themselves for integrating gene genomic data sets. These methods have been used for a broad spectrum of age-related diseases including neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, cardiovascular disease. Dr. Horvath received a Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill in 1995 and a Doctorate of Science in Biostatistics from the Harvard School of Public Health in 2000.

Description: The SOA Committee on Living to 100 Research Symposia is pleased to present the following essays on recent old age mortality, mortality improvement trends and social issues on aging populations.

Description: Transcript of the Q&A period from session 2A.

Description: Transcript of Session 1A.

Description: This report focuses on disparities in retirement savings based on race and ethnicity. It includes a thorough review of the literature on the extent of racial disparities in retirement savings and possible causes for and correlates of these disparities.

Description: This paper discusses two modifications of the Makeham Law of Mortality and their effectiveness in showing the mortality patterns for the 1993 Philippine Intercompany Mortality PICM Table. From 2005 Living to 100 and Beyond Monograph, M-LI05-1.

Description: This report outlines a methodology for estimating mortality improvement factors based on data from insured lives. The report details challenges, methodology, results, comparisons with population data, limitations, and potential improvements.

Description: Discover an introduction to decomposing differences in life expectancy by age and cause of death. Take a look into demographic techniques that decompose life expectancies at birth and older ages into the portions contributed by later age groups and causes of death-. These have been in existence for some time and provide a convenient device for analyzing mortality change over time as well as differences between sexes, countries, and ethnic groups. The methods will be described and illustrated by spreadsheet examples.
