Ancient Greece | Early speculations on aging are focussed on the bodily humoral imbalance and on the gradual loss of inner heat.[1] |
Middle Age/Renaissance | Rejuvenating or stopping the aging process is a major concern in this period.[1] |
Renaissance–18th century | Some themes around which aging and senescence research revolve are the idea that senescence is itself an illness, the image of the aged body as a lamp in which life-fuel has run out, the character alterations of elders, and the attempt to prolong life through specific diet or by substituting damaged body parts.[1] |
Late 19th–20th century | Starting from the so-called "fin-de-siècle" period, scientific optimism flourishes, and life-extensionism represents the most radical form of the trend.[2] Life expectancy starts to rise in the Western world.[3] |
20th century | Since the 1930s, it is understood that restricting calories can extend lifespan in laboratory animals.[4] After the Second World War, modern knowledge accumulates. The 1950s see the first attempts to distinguish, measure and compare the functional and chronological ages of individuals, of which biological considerations were an important component.[5][6] The beginning of the term “senescence” in the context of mammalian cell cultures begins in the 1960s with the work of Hayflick and Moorhead.[7] Also by this same decade, biologists start becoming aware of mortality leveling-off.[8] In the 1980s, the field of life-span psychology is born.[9] |
21st century | Modern anti-aging organizations merge and their proliferation multiplies toward the 2000s.[2] In the 21st century, research activity increases, as well as interdisciplinary collaboration of senescence research with other fields, such as data science. In the second half of 2010s official discussions about the possibility of recognizing aging as a disease emmerge.[10][11][12][13][14] |

Full timeline
Year/period | Type of Event | Research type (when applicable) | Event | Location | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
c. 99 BC – c. 55 BC | Scientific development | Roman poet and philosopher Lucretius argues that aging and death are beneficial because they make room for the next generation. This view will persist among biologists well into the 20th century.[18] | |||
5th century | Scientific development | Early formulations, described by Hippocrates' system of four humours, theorize old age as a consequence of the gradual consumption of the innate heat with the inevitable loss of body moisture.[1] | Greece | ||
1825 | Scientific development | British mathematician Benjamin Gompertz proposes an exponential increase in death rates with age, giving birth to what later will be called The Gompertz-Makeham law.[19][20] The simplest form of the law is: p = a + bx. According to the law, the probability of death p is defined as the sum of age-independent component a and the component depending of age bx which with age increases exponentially. If we place organisms in an absolutely protected environment and in this way make the first component negligible, the probability of death will be completely defined by the second component which actually describes the probability to die from aging. | United Kingdom | ||
1882 | Scientific development | Theory | German evolutionary biologist August Weismann introduces the wear and tear theory of aging, which sustains that cells and tissues have vital parts that wear out resulting in aging. "Like components of an aging car, parts of the body eventually wear out from repeated use, killing them and then the body."[4] | Germany | |
1891 | Scientific development | Theory | August Weismann proposes the first formal programmed aging theory as an evolutionary explanation of aging driven by group selection. His argument is that aging evolved to the advantage of the species (e.g., by replacing worn out individuals with younger ones), not the individual.[21][22] | Germany | |
1903 | Scientific development | Concept introduction | Russian zoologist Ilya Mechnikov coins the term "gerontology".[23][24][25] | ||
1904 | Scientific development | Theory | Metchnikoff introduces the Autointoxication theory of aging, which is considered important at the whole animal level.[26] This is one of the first toxic theories as Metchnikoffs proposes the idea of autointoxication by products of bacterial origin, primarily from bacterial processes in the large intestine. Metchnikoff believes that even simple changes of acidity by the consumption of yogurt could inhibit the production of bacterial toxins.[27] | ||
1908 | Scientific development | Theory | German physiologist Max Rubner describes his rate-of-living theory, which proposes that a slow metabolism increases an animal's longevity. It states that fast basal metabolic rate corresponds to short maximum life span.[28][29] Some studies conclude that the rate‐of‐living theory does not hold true for terrestrial vertebrates, and suggest that life expectancy is driven by selection arising from extrinsic mortality factors.[30] | Germany | |
1928 | Scientific development | Theory | American biologist Raymond Pearl describes the rate of living hypothesis as an expansion of the earlier theory by Max Rubner. It states that organisms with a high metabolic rate have shorter lives.[31] | United States | |

1940 | Scientific development | Theory | Nagorny introduces a theory of aging based on age changes, which is described as the stabilization and inactivation (insolubilization) of intercellular structural proteins. Nagorny postulates that aging is linked to the accumulation of intercellular inactivated "metaplasmic" proteins due to the inability of enzymes to destroy them.[27] | ||
1942 | Scientific development | Theory | Johan Björkstein proposes the cross‐linkage theory of aging. According to it, aging results from the accumulation of intra‐ and intermolecular covalent bonds between molecules, termed “cross‐links.”[39][4] | ||

1954 | Scientific development | Theory | Soviet scientist Vladimir Dilman formulates the elevation hypothesis of aging, a hypothesis known only in the USSR at first. Later, in 1968, it would take the form and became known as the neuroendocrine theory of aging.[44][45][46] | Russia (USSR at the time) | |
1954 | Scientific development | Theory | The Free-radical theory of aging (first introduced by Dr. Rebeca Gerschman) is developed by Dr. Denham Harman, this theory proposes that superoxide and other free radicals cause damage to the macromolecular components of the cell, giving rise to accumulated damage causing cells, and eventually organs, to stop functioning.[4] | ||
1954 | Scientific development | Theory | Research by Nikitin introduces a theory of aging based on age changes, and described as the accumulation of protein-DNA cross-links and progressive stabilization of chromatin complexes. This theory is further elaborated by von Hahn.[27] | ||
1956 | Scientific development | Theory | American chemist Denham Harman presents the free radical theory of aging, which states that organisms age over time due to the accumulation of damage from free radicals in the body.[31] Harman is known as the "father of the free radical theory of aging".[47][48] Today, an increasing number of studies contradict this theory.[49] | United States | |
1956 | Scientific development | Theory | Benefitted by the cosolidation of knowledge of the toxic intermediate products of normal metabolism, Vladimir Korenchevsky introduces a general toxic theory of aging.[27] | ||
1957 | Scientific development | Theory | American evolutionary biologist George C. Williams proposes the today called Antagonistic pleiotropy hypothesis (AP) for the evolution of aging. It occurs when one gene controls for more than one phenotypic trait where at least one of these is beneficial to the organism's fitness and at least one is detrimental, thus accumulating damage.[18][50] | United States | |
1957 | Scientific development | Theory | M. F. Sinex publishes article titled Aging and the lability of irreplacable molecules, establishing a theory based on quantitative changes of proteins, and describing as the loss of irreplaceable molecules or enzymes.[27][51] | ||
1958 | Scientific development | Theory | American physicists Gioacchino Failla and Leo Szilard propose the somatic mutation theory, which suggests that aging is caused by random DNA damage in somatic cells and that the extent of damage is enhanced by radiation.[2] | United States | |
1958 | Scientific development | Clinical study | The Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging begins in the United States as a clinical research program on human aging. As of 2020, it is the longest-running study of aging in that country. It consists in volunteers of different ages in healthy conditions being follow-up visited for years. Participants are tested and evaluated for many physical elements as well as for brain function, mood, personality, and social aspects of life. This program would contribute more than any other research project to the understanding of aging.[52] | United States | |
1959 | Scientific development | Theory | Sacher introduces a size-lifespan correlation theory, positively correlating body weight with the longevity in mammals.[27] | ||
1959 | Scientific development | Theory | Roy Walford proposes the Immunological theory of aging,[53] which asserts that the process of human aging is largely controlled by the immune system, which weakens as an organism ages. This makes the organism unable to fight infections and less able to destroy old and neoplastic cells. This leads to aging and will eventually lead to death.[54] | United States | |
1961 | Scientific development | Concept introduction | The beginning of the term “senescence” in the context of mammalian cell cultures is considered to be born out of the discovery by American anatomist Leonard Hayflick and his colleague Paul Moorhead, who describe that primary cells have a finite lifespan when cultured in vitro, contrasting cancer cells that divide without limits.[7] Hayflick demonstrates that a population of normal human fetal cells in a cell culture will divide between 40 and 60 times before entering a senescence phase. This process will be known later as the Hayflick limit.[55][56][57] | United States | |

1963 | Scientific development | Theory | Leslie Orgel proposes the Error Catastrophe Theory of Aging, which is based on changes in protein biosynthesis (translation).[27] This theory states that aging is the result of the accumulation of errors in cellular molecules that are essential for cellular function and reproduction that eventually reaches a catastrophic level that is incompatible with cellular survival.[58][59] | ||
1963 | Scientific development | Laboratory | South African biologist Sydney Brenner suggests the ability to easily and cheaply grow large quantities of worms in the lab as being very helpful for aging research, especially when identifying long-lived mutants caenorhabditis elegans, which have a relatively short lifespan (average approximately 17 days at 20 °C), and the lifespan is largely invariant.[60] | ||

1974 | Organization | The National Institute on Aging (NIA) is formed as a division of the United States National Institutes of Health (NIH), with the purpose of conducting research on aging process and age-related diseases and disseminating information on health and research advances, among other aims.[71][72] | United States (National Institute on Aging) | ||
1974 | Scientific development | Theory | Study by Arthur B. Robinson introduces a theory of aging based on age changes, and described as the progressive deamination of glutaminyl and asparaginyl residues in proteins.[73][27] | United States | |

1975 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Australian-American molecular biologist Elizabeth Blackburn discovers the unusual nature of telomeres, with their simple repeated DNA sequences composing chromosome ends.[74][75] Some years later, Blackburn, Carol Greider and Jack Szostak discover how chromosomes are protected by telomeres and the enzyme telomerase, for which they receive the 2009 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.[76] Further experiments establish the role of telomere shortening in cellular aging and telomerase reactivation in cell immortalization.[77] | United States | |
1976 | Scientific development | Theory | Cutler introduces a theory of aging based on age changes, and described as the cross-links between DNA molecules.[27] | ||
1977 | Scientific development | Theory | English biologist Thomas Kirkwood proposes the third mainstream theory of aging, the disposable soma, which states that organisms only have a limited amount of energy that has to be divided between reproductive activities and the maintenance of the non-reproductive aspects of the organism.[78] Considered to be the most influential line of reasoning in gerontology, this theory states that aging is caused by accumulation of random damage, which is counteracted by repair. Repair is costly and the organism allocates exactly the needed amount of energetic resources. DST would be applied to explain why women live longer than men. Women are less disposable than men, so they need a better repair and thus live longer.[79] | ||
1977 | Scientific development | Theory | Research started by Kirkwood establishes an aging theory on lifespan correlations with changes at the molecular level. This theory suggests that immortal germ cells may have more comprehensive repairs and may have higher accuracy of synthesis than somatic cells.[27] | ||

1978 | Scientific development | Theory | Soviet scientist A. N. Lobachev proposes the mitochondrial non free radical theory of aging, which suggests that the main reason of accumulation of damages in mt DNA is the fact that at certain moment of cell life, the development of mitochondria begin to conflict with the development of nucleus. This theory concludes that mitochondria appears to be the «biologic clock» of the cell and programm the duration of its life.[81][82] | Russia | |
1978 | Scientific development | Laboratory | For research on aging, early studies in nematode C. elegans focus on the feasibility of measuring lifespan and the use of 5-Fluoro-2′-deoxyuridine (FUDR) to maintain synchronous cultures of aged animals.[60] | ||

1980 | Scientific development | Theory | Strehler introduces an aging theory classification that underlines the interrelation between different mechanisms of aging in an attempt to unite all these types into two "supergroups": genetically programmed aging, and aging secondary to genetic qualities (entropic increase). Strehler classification groupes theories of aging into evolutionary (selection for limited lifespan), post-reproductive failure, failure of coordinating systems, pleiotropic side effects of advantageous qualities (clonal aging, autoimmunity), informational failure (changes in proteins and DNA), structural damage or loss and accumulation of dysfunctional materials (age-pigments, inactive proteins, lytic enzymes, etc.)[27] | ||
1982 | Scientific development | Theory | Pashko and Schwartz propose an aging theory on lifespan correlations at the cellular level, suggesting a correlation between lifespan and species-specific activity of detoxification enzymes (longer-lived animals have higher efficiency of detoxification and are more resistant to environmental toxins).[27] | ||

1988 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Genetic work by Tom Johnson et al. on mutant C. elegans mapps all of them to a single genetic locus, named age-1. This is the first breakthrough in aging research for studies based on C. elegans as this study reveals that it is possible to identify mutants that altered lifespan and more importantly, individual genes can modulate lifespan.[60] | ||

1991 | Scientific development | Theory | Leonid A. Gavrilov and Natalia S. Gavrilova apply the principles of reliability theory to human biology, proposing a reliabity theory of aging which is based on the premise that humans are born in a highly defective state. According to the model, this is then made worse by environmental and mutational damage, and survival of the organism depends on redundancy.[94][95] | ||
1991 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Leonard Hayflick describes an increase in cell degeneration and debris, resembling cell death.[7] | United States | |
1992 | Scientific development | Data science | The National Archive of Computerized Data on Aging (NACDA) publishes in the Internet the first 28 datasets related to aging. Gradually, the number of published datasets would surpass 1600. These datasets are available to any researcher around the world at no charge, so they can search in them for new patterns. The site also provides some tools to facilitate analysis.[96] | United States | |
1993 | Scientific development | Laboratory | American molecular biologist Cynthia Kenyon discovers that a single-gene mutation (Daf-2) can double the lifespan of nematode Caenorhabditis elegans and that this can be reversed by a second mutation in daf-16m.[97][98] | United States | |

1995 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Detection of senescent cells using a cytochemical assay is first described.[100] Researchers discover that senescent cells express a β-galactosidase activity; and describe the “senescence-associated β galactosidase” (SA-βgal) biomarker, which conveniently identifies individual senescent cells in vitro and in vivo.[101] | ||
1995 | Scientific development | Laboratory | The existence of senescence-associated beta-galactosidase is proposed by Dimri et al.[102] following the observation that when beta-galactosidase assays were carried out at pH 6.0, only cells in senescence state develop staining. They proposed a cytochemical assay based on production of a blue-dyed precipitate that results from the cleavage of the chromogenic substrate X-Gal, which stains blue when cleaved by galactosidase. Since then, even more specific quantitative assays were developed for its detection at pH 6.0.[103][104][105] | ||
1995 | Scientific development | Theory | The remodeling theory of aging is introduced.[90] It postulates that immunosenescence or 'immuno-remodelling' is a dynamic process involving both loss and gains of immune function.[106] | ||

The group uses human insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) to stimulate cell death in 293T cells and mouse embryonic fibroblasts, observing distinct differences from other forms of cell death. They coin the term "paraptosis", derived from the Greek preposition para, meaning beside or related to, and apoptosis.[114][115] | United States | |

2006 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Shinya Yamanaka and John Gurdon receive the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their work on reprogramming mature cells into pluripotent cells.[125] Yamanaka is the first to produce induced stem cells (iSC) from somatic cells by the simultaneous action of several factors.[126][127][128] | ||
2007 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Researchers manage to extend mouse lifespan via deletion of insulin receptor in the brain.[116][129] | ||
2007 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Researchers report first evidence that a pharmacological agent (namely, metformin) at a certain dosage is capable to increase the lifespan of mice.[116][130] | ||
2008 | Scientific development | Concept introduction | The concept of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) is first established by Judith Campisi and her group, who first publish on the subject.[131] | United States | |
2008 | Organization | The Max Planck Institute for Biology of Ageing is founded. Its overall research aim is to obtain fundamental insights into the aging process and thus to pave the way towards healthier aging in humans.[132] | Germany | ||
2009 | Scientific development | Laboratory | A group of three laboratories initiate a study of the effects of rapamycin on the life span of mice. After administering the agent at late ages, the team discovers a significant increase in maximum life span.[48] | ||
2009 | Recognition | Laboratory | Elizabeth Blackburn, Carol Greider, and Jack Szostak are awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine "for the discovery of how chromosomes are protected by telomeres and the enzyme telomerase."[133] These researchers are aware of the implications of their research on telomerase for the biology of aging, in particular Carol Greider who would become quite active in that field.[48] | ||
2009 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Researchers report association of genetic variants in insulin/IGF1 signaling with human longevity.[116][134] | ||
2010 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Harvard scientists reverse aging process in mice through reactivation of telomerase.[135] | United States | |
2010 | Organization (research network) | The European Network in Aging Studies is established.[136][137] | Europe | ||
2012 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Researchers from the Institute of Molecular Oncology (IFOM) in Milan and Molecular Genetics of the National Research Council (IGM-CNR) in Pavia identify for the first time a class of non-coding RNAs, called “DNA Damage Response RNAs (DDRNAs)”, laying the foundation for the future advances in cellular aging.[138] | Italy | |
2012 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Research by Nelson et al. shows that the bystander effect of senescent cells negatively affects non‐senescent cells via reactive oxygen species (ROS). The researchers also show that a paracrine effect of senescent cells can damage DNA.[7][139] | ||
2013 (January) | Organization | The North American Network in Aging Studies (NANAS) is established with the ultimate purpose to improve the health, care, and quality of life for people aging into old age.[136] | United States | ||
2013 | Scientific development | Laboratory | A group of scientists define nine hallmarks of aging that are common between organisms with emphasis on mammals:
|
||
2013 | Notable case | Japanese supercentenarian Jiroemon Kimura dies at the age of 115 years and 54 days, as the oldest verified man in history.[141] | Japan | ||
2014 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Researchers report first evidence that pharmacological activation of SIRT1 extends lifespan in mice and improves their health.[116][142][143] | ||
2016 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Scientists at Newcastle University demonstrate for the first time that mitochondria are major triggers of cell aging, after having found that when mitochondria are eliminated from aging cells, the latter become much more similar to younger cells. This discovery advances a step closer to developing therapies to counteract the aging of cells, by targeting mitochondria.[144][145][146] | United Kingdom (Newcastle University) | |
2016 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Researchers find that the replenishment of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) in the organism of mice through precursor molecules improves the functioning of mitochondria and stem cells, and also leads to an increase in their lifespan.[116][147] One of these NAD+ precursor molecules is nicotinamide mononucleotide NMN.[148][149] | ||
2016 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Researchers demonstrate that a combination of longevity associated drugs can additively extend lifespan in mice.[116][150] | ||
2017 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Researchers discover that a naturally occurring polymorphism in human signaling pathways is in some cases associated with health and longevity. It is also detected that, the same as in mice, this association can depend on the gender (it can be observed for one gender but not for another). This indicates that by correctly influencing these pathways, it is theoretically possible to alter lifespan and healthspan in humans.[116][151] | ||
2017 (December) | Scientific development | Laboratory | Study shows that preventing wrinkles could be as easy as expressing a protein called FKBP1b.[152] | ||
2018 (January) | Scientific development | Laboratory | Researchers at the University of Texas Health Science Center (UTHealth) in Houston report a connection between accelerated epigenetic aging and bipolar disorder. The results could explain why people suffering from bipolar disorder are more likely to die from age-related diseases.[153] | United States | |
2018 | Policy | The World Health Organization includes in the international classification of diseases ICD-11 a special additional code signaling the relationship of a disease with age. As a result, after the final approval of the ICD-11 in May 2019, aging would begin to be officially recognized as a fundamental factor that increases the risk of diseases, the severity of their course and the difficulty of treatment.[154][155][156][157][158] | |||
2018 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Researchers identify naked mole-rats as the first mammal to defy the Gompertz–Makeham law of mortality, and achieve negligible senescence. It would be speculated however that this may be simply a "time-stretching" effect primarily due to their very slow (and cold-blooded and hypoxic) metabolism.[159][160] | ||
2019 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Researchers show that many major features of cellular senescence, such as the pro‐inflammatory phenotype, are dependent on the stable cell cycle arrest.[161][7] | ||
2019 | Scientific development | Laboratory | Scientists manage to extend the average lifespan of mice by breeding them using embryonic stem cells with extra-long telomeres. The finding is significant as no genetic modification is conducted.[162][163][164] | ||
2019 (December 9) | Scientific development | Laboratory | Researchers at the Pasteur Institute identify the CSB protein, whose absence or dysfunction causes early aging, among other afflictions, in patients with Cockayne syndrome.[165] | France | |
2020 (July) | Scientific development | Laboratory | Scientists, using public biological data on 1.75 million people with known lifespans overall, identify 10 genomic loci which appear to intrinsically influence healthspan, lifespan, and longevity – of which half have not been reported previously at genome-wide significance and most being associated with cardiovascular disease – and identify haem metabolism as a promising candidate for further research within the field. Their study suggests that high levels of iron in the blood likely reduce, and genes involved in metabolising iron likely increase healthy years of life in humans.[166] | United Kingdom | |
2020 (December) | Scientific development | Laboratory | Researchers at University of California, San Francisco report on an experimental drug called ISRIB, which restores memory function months after traumatic brain injury (TBI) in mice.[167] | United States |
