Jay Olshansky, Ph.D. (born 1954) is a professor of epidemiology at the University of Illinois at Chicago School of Public Health.[1] He is a biodemographer, biogerontologist and researcher on the upper limits to human ageing and longevity and efforts to inform the public about products that claim to reverse or stop the aging process. Olshansky is the lead author of "The Quest for Immortality: Science at the Frontiers of Aging," the recipient of two Independent Science Awards from the National Institute on Aging, and a Fulbright Senior Specialist. More specifically, the focus of Olshansky's research to date has been addressed to estimating the upper limits to human longevity while exploring the health and social consequences of individual and population aging and examining the demographic and health implications of the rise in death rates from infectious and parasitic diseases as well as the development of a new field of longevity research referred to as biodemography.
