Abstract As human lifespan increases and the population ages, diseases of aging such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are a major cause for concern. Although calorie restriction (CR) as an intervention has been shown to increase healthspan in many species, few studies have examined the effects of CR on brain aging in primates. Using postmortem tissue from a cohort of extremely aged rhesus monkeys (22–44 years old, average age 31.8 years) from a longitudinal CR study, we measured immunohistochemically...

Today, gliding is so commonplace, we don't think to ask when we see a plane or a helicopter doing it. (Carlo Giambarresi/)This story originally featured on Flying Magazine.I was quite young when I first fell in love with gliding. It may have been even before I fell in love with Cecilia Revilla, who sat in front of me in the fourth grade. When I say gliding, I don’t mean flying a sailplane; I was much too young for that. I mean just the fact of something gliding—a butterfly, a model airplane, a folded-up...
