About Vince Giuliano

Being a follower, connoisseur, and interpreter of longevity research is my latest career, since 2007. I believe I am unique among the researchers and writers in the aging sciences community in one critical respect. That is, I personally practice the anti-aging interventions that I preach and that has kept me healthy, young, active and highly involved at my age, now 96. I am as productive as I was at age 45. I don’t know of anybody else active in that community in my age bracket. In particular, I have focused on the importance of controlling chronic inflammation for healthy aging, and have written a number of articles on that subject in this blog. In 2014, I created a dietary supplement to further this objective. In 2019, two family colleagues and I started up Synergy Bioherbals, a dietary supplement company that is now selling this product. As of November 2025, I believe the longevity interventions I have already published in this blog and are being followed by me will easily get me to age 100 and somewhat beyond, still healthy, highly functional and working Further, I have been researching and will be pubishing about additional interventions which I expect will buy me several additional years of active healthy living. In earlier reincarnations of my career. I was Founding Dean of a graduate school and a full University Professor at the State University of New York, a senior consultant working in a variety of fields at Arthur D. Little, Inc., Chief Scientist and C00 of Mirror Systems, a software company, and an international Internet consultant. I got off the ground with one of the earliest PhD's from Harvard in a field later to become known as computer science. Because there was no academic field of computer science at the time, to get through I had to qualify myself in hard sciences, so my studies focused heavily on quantum physics. In various ways I contributed to the Computer Revolution starting in the 1950s and the Internet Revolution starting in the late 1980s. I am now engaged in doing the same for The Longevity Revolution. I have published something like 200 books and papers as well as over 430 substantive.entries in this blog, and have enjoyed various periods of notoriety. If you do a Google search on Vincent E. Giuliano, most if not all of the entries on the first few pages that come up will be ones relating to me. I have a general writings site at www.vincegiuliano.com and an extensive site of my art at www.giulianoart.com. Please note that I have recently changed my mailbox to vegiuliano@agingsciences.com.

Genes discussed or mentioned in this blog

Genetics, genomics, epigenetics and epigenomics are important recurrent topics in the writing of this blog.  The discussions have included many examples of longevity-related  genes, “shortivity” genes, cancer and inflammation-related genes, gene silencing and gene mutations.  For reference purposes I list … Continue reading

Terminator stem cells in the early pipeline

The concept here is engineering stem cells so they differentiate into body cells that target, go after and kill “bad” cells, such as cells infected with HIV or cancer cells.  It is a fairly new approach.  Since stem cells have … Continue reading

Brain-activated speech synthesis

I remember an old Star Trek movie where severely debilitated people without functional vocal chords could readily speak to each other by merely thinking their sentences.  Recent research is bringing us closer to having such a capability.  The article A … Continue reading

Diet and cognition

I set out two days ago to see what updated research I could find on diet and cognition.  I found a bewildering array of items, some somewhat contradictory.  It has been a cognitive challenge to make sense of them, especially … Continue reading

Personalized medicine and genetic drug interactions – another long way to go

One hope for personalized medicine is that individuals would have their major gene variations profiled and that drug interactions with critical genes would also be profiled.  Thus, a person with a particular disease could determine whether a particular drug is … Continue reading
