Harvard Longevity Project

The Harvard Longevity Project is a long-term research study aimed at understanding the factors that contribute to a long, healthy life. It began in the 1930s with a group of Harvard graduates and has continued to track their lives, gathering data on health, relationships, and lifestyle choices. Researchers analyze this information to identify patterns and insights that highlight what influences longevity. Findings suggest that emotional well-being, strong social connections, and a positive outlook on life are crucial for extending life expectancy and improving overall quality of life.
