America''s longest-running scientific study of human aging, begun in 1958. BLSA scientists are learning what happens as people age and how to sort out changes due to aging from those due to disease or other causes. More than 1,400 men and women are study volunteers. They range in age from their 20s to their 90s. This study is currently recruiting healthy seniors over 70.

Data includes a number of computed variables that are available for ROS, MAP and MARS cohorts. These variables are under categories such as affect and personality, chronic medical conditions, and clinical diagnosis. Specimens include ante-mortem and post-mortem samples obtained from subjects evaluated by ROS, MAP and clinical study cores. Specimen categories include: Brain tissue (Fixed and frozen), Spinal cord, Muscles (Post-mortem), and Nerve (Post-mortem), among other types of specimens. Data sharing policies and procedures apply to obtaining ante-mortem and post-mortem specimens from participants evaluated by the selected cohorts of the RADC.
