By definition, a validated super-centenarian is a properly documented centenarian who has lived to be at least the age of 110 years. The tables reproduced below and various other tables of super-centenarians are regularly updated by Dr. Stephen Coles, one of the members of our Editorial Board, along with other members of the Los Angeles Gerontology Research Group. For further details, please contact them through their website at www.grg.org/. These updated tables continue the series published in Rejuvenation Research in 20111 and 2012,2 and give the latest list of living super-centenarians and the list of those who died in the past year. As of January 13, 2013, there were 63 living super-centenarians on our list (58 females and 5 males), while 62 had died in 2012.
