Giacinto Libertini, MD, Independent Researcher, Member of the Italian Society for Evolutionary Biology, was the first to formulate some basic concepts of evolutionary medicine and to propose the theory of aging as an adaptive phenomenon favored by natural selection in terms of kin selection. He has also extended and deepened the concept of phenoptosis proposed by Vladimir Skulachev.Graziamaria Corbi, PhD, Professor of Internal Medicine in the Dept. of Translational Medical Sciences, Federico II Univ. of Naples, Italy, has contributed to over 120 publications covering internal medicine, geriatrics, cardiology, clinical pharmacology and public health.Olga Shubernetskaya, PhD, Assistant Professor of Shemyakin–Ovchinnikov Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry, Moscow, Russia is a very promising and innovative scholar of telomere and telomerase biology.Klara Komici, PhD, Assistant Professor of Dept. of Medicine and Health Sciences, Univ. of Molise, Campobasso, Italy, has contributed to more than 60 works in the fields of internal medicine.Nicola Ferrara, PhD, Professor of the Dept. of Translational Medical Sciences, Federico II Univ. of Naples, Italy, Dean of the Specialization School in Gerontology and Geriatrics, past President of the Italian Society of Gerontology and Geriatrics, has contributed to about 400 works in many fields including mainly cardiology, geriatrics, and biogerontology. Marco Passamonti, PhD, Professor of Dept. of Biological, Geological and Environmental Sciences, Univ. of Bologna, Italy, Coordinator of the Degree Course in Natural Sciences, past President of the Italian Society of Evolutionary Biology (SIBE-ISEB), has contributed to more than 90 works about many biological topics.
