With aging patients, our goal is prevention, although that may not be realistic with everyone.

How much of longevity is attributable to genetic factors, and how much to family history, biomarkers, lifestyle or environment? What are the modifiable risk factors – diet, stress, exercise, medication, human connection, smoking, alcohol, the environment…? How do we define “biological age?” Do we look at changes in metabolism…vulnerability to infection…immunologic status? How does the physician’s perspective on aging compare with the perspective of the patient?

Lessons Learned from My Trip to Eastern Europe and Prospects for Peace–Please Read

Dear Test, I hope you are having a nice summer. I just returned from a 12-day trip to Prague, Budapest, Krakow, Warsaw, and two concentration camps—Terezin and Auschwitz— under the guidance of tenured Union College history professor of Holocaust and Jewish Studies, Dr. Stephen Berk. I felt compelled to take this trip to learn more about my Jewish heritage and understand what transpired during the Holocaust so that going forward I can work to combat antisemitism, racism, and other forms of hate and discrimination.

Six million Jews and 6 million non-Jews including political and religious prisoners, people who helped the Jews, homosexuals, Gypsies, alcoholics, criminals, vagrants, and members of other persecuted groups including disabled people were...
