Calogero Caruso is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Biomedicine, Neurosciences and Advanced Diagnostics at the University of Palermo. He has authored over 415 papers, mostly on ageing, age-related diseases, and longevity. He was founder and editor in chief of Immunity & Ageing from 2004 to 2018, Coordinator of the PhD program in Molecular Medicine and Biotechnology (formerly Pathobiology) from 1998-2018, and National Coordinator of Italian Ministerial Project on Centenarians and Longevity from 2016-2019. Finally, with Prof. Giuseppina Candore he is responsible for the local unit of the project “Improved Vaccination Strategies for Older Adults (ISOLDA) funded by the European Commission. The national and international recognition of his scientific achievements in the field of Biogerontology is documented by funded projects, by the number of citations of his papers, by invitations to national and international congresses and meetings, by his activity as a project reviewer and by organization of international conferences. Giuseppina Candore is an Associate Professor of General Pathology with the Laboratory of Immunopathology and Immunosenescence in the Department of Biomedicine, Neurosciences and Advanced Diagnostics at University of Palermo. She has authored 244 papers, mostly on ageing and longevity. She is Co-coordinator of Italian Ministerial Project on Centenarians and Longevity, and with Prof. Calogero Caruso she is responsible for the local unit of the project “Improved Vaccination Strategies for Older Adults (ISOLDA) just funded by European Commission. She is Director of School od Specialty in Clinical Biochemistry and Pathology. The national and international recognition of her scientific achievements in the field of Biogerontology is documented by the number of citations of her papers and by organization of national and international conferences.
