A philosophy that many of us have heard is “We all get to be young, but it is only the lucky who get to be old”. The Baby Boomer Generation is now reaching the age where the study of gerontology becomes increasingly relevant. Gerontology is the comprehensive study of Aging and its implications. It encompasses various disciplines such as biology, psychology, and sociology to understand the process of aging, the challenges faced by older adults, and the strategies to improve their quality of life. Our Experts in this area of the site explore how Gerontology looks at the processes and problems of aging from all aspects including biologic, clinical, psychological, sociological, legal, economic and political.
Examples of professionals who might also identify as gerontologists include physicians, nurses, biologists, psychologists, social workers, economists and scholars in the humanities or arts. They are interested seeing the changes as we are aging, which includes our body, mind and social routines. They watch how society changes as the population gets older. And they figure out how to use this knowledge to create beneficial policies and programs for aging adults. Their insightful work can not only better support aging adults, but society more broadly.
Evelyn challenges many of society's assumptions about aging. She explains why curiosity, lifelong learning, resilience, and purpose matter far more than the number of candles on a birthday cake.

You’re preparing for retirement. For many of us, there’s another transition nestled within that one. It comes with joy and little instruction – becoming a grandparent.

In our last conversation, Dan Pontefract gave us a demographic wake-up call. The future of work is aging, and longer lives will require new thinking about careers, retirement, and contribution.
Today, Scott Siff brings that to the practical level: how do we create better pathways for people who want to keep contributing, but not necessarily in the same way? And what are emp…

Dan Pontefract spent two decades building leadership, culture, and engagement inside high-tech and telecom organizations, and never once thought seriously about age. Then, in his early fifties, he had a wake-up call. It sent him to look under a rock he’d never lifted, where he found “an absolute cavern of issues.” The result is his sixth book, The Future is Grey: The Untapped Value of Age in the Workforce.

What if everything you’ve been told about retirement is quietly working against you? John Coleman has spent his career around money and purpose, which makes his message all the more striking: money is a tool, not the point. In his new book, Good Money: Six Steps to Building a Financial Life with Purpose, he rethinks personal finance around human flourishing, and one of his steps reframes retirement itself: save for freedom, not retirement.
