Welcome to AgeVenture, the internationally acclaimed news source for expert reporting on longevity research, retirement trends, and advances in medical science that help humans stay youthful longer.
AgeVenture's editor-in-chief, Dr. David Demko is a University of Michigan doctoral grad who regularly contributes to academic and mass media markets via publication and consultation with the Fortune 500 seeking creative services for trademark development and product branding. Civic groups have commended David's contributions to Aging America, Black History, Hispanic Heritage, student service and college governance. In 2004, Demko's public service record earned the prestigious Ronald Reagan Gold Medal Award. In 1987, as founder and CEO of Florida's Senior Living Network, Demko created the groundwork for a gerontological publishing and communications syndicate, now known as AgeVenture Syndicated News Service. Launched in 1995, AgeVenture serves a global audience via newspaper, magazine, radio, and television placements. Dr. Demko is the recipient of the "Distinguished Service" award from the American Association of University Professors, Honors Society Outstanding Professor of the Year, and is listed in "Who's Who Among America's Best College Teachers" and the “Directory of American Scholars”. A self-styled gerontrepreneur, Dr. Demko directed Michigan's Delta College to national prominence in the field of aging in 1975 by innovating curriculum strategies heralded as the "Aging Education Continuum", a grand theory of educational gerontology. By 1984, as Vice President of Florida's College of Boca Raton, Dr. Demko spearheaded that college's transition from a two-year school serving 400 students into a bachelor's and graduate degree granting institution serving over one thousand students. A foundation award of $4.3 million, orchestrated by Demko, supported the transition from community college to university status. Gerontological terms coined and copyrighted by Dr. Demko include the following list with accompanying links to publications where the key terms first appear in print along with a description of the context in which the terms are to be used.
