Bibliography

Listed below are all the roughly 1,000 references cited in senescence.info. I often cite my own academic publications for the simple reason that I am more familiar with them, though I always aim to provide a broad overview of the literature on any given topic. For the sake of brevity I do not cite every single paper related to a given topic, and I frequently cite review papers and books--yet I try to cite the most important primary research papers. Lastly, please see my list of links and books for additional sources of information.
