of Centenarians [The Harvard University Medical School in Boston
is currently conducting an international research project called
the Centenarian Sibling Pair Study. Subject candidates are individuals
98 years old and older and their living brothers and sisters who
are at least 90. Participation is voluntary and free of charge.
The project's researchers hope to unlock the mysteries of aging
and discover information that could lead to a cure for such devastating
diseases as Alzheimer's and certain cancers.]
