SUMMARY:Melissa Emery Thompson - The Gray Ape: What Can Chimpanzees Tell Us About Human Aging?
DESCRIPTION:Melissa Emery Thompson \nEvolutionary Anthropology\, University of New Mexico \nGiven their close evolutionary relationship to humans and lifespans that can extend into their 60s\, chimpanzees are a uniquely informative comparative model for the evolution of human aging. Here\, I will review early findings of the first focused study of aging in wild chimpanzees. Chimpanzees share key similarities in physiological\, physical\, and social aging with humans\, but they show a remarkable lack of evidence for aging pathologies. This evidence helps support and contextualize recent cross-cultural evidence from humans which suggests that common diseases of aging may be novel products of post-industrial environments.
