The book is based on a course for masters in the specialty "Public Health" at the Bio-Soil Faculty of St. Petersburg State University. Course listeners have different basic biological or medical specialties. This means that doctors need to remind the basics of biochemistry in the relevant perspective, biochemists need to be familiar with the elderly diseases, and those and others need to be introduced into the course of the fundamentals of the electrophysiology of neurons, because they are involved in the age neurological disorders, etc. Considered, in the relevant perspective and the amount, the latest data on molecular biological mechanisms for the expression of genes and cell differentiation and proliferation, because without this it is now impossible to consider, for example, the value of telomere and apoptosis in aging. Studies of the general principles of the redistribution of the body"s resources from anabolism and reproduction on self-preservation, which have been preserved in evolution from unicellular to humans, are in parallel with deciphering the mechanisms of electoral stabilization of gene activity. Modern ideas about the age neurological disorders are impossible without taking into account the principles of the formation of the tertiary structure of proteins, important for the formation of amyloid fibrils. Understanding key moments in all these issues, graphic materials are helping, over 50 schemes and illustrations. That is, the manual aims to ensure that the reader is able to navigate into the sea of current literature on gerontology, avoiding both spelling conclusions and speculation, and inadequacy, the most recent achievements of biology ,, not reflected in traditional training courses, and can serve as an introduction to biiocerontology for readers Almost any level of training, including not only biologists and doctors. Since the focus of the passage is made not on the description of numerous private manifestations of aging, and on their basis, this is not a reference book, but a guide for general biology in a gerontological aspect
