China won the right to host the 16th
IUAES World Congress in July, 2003. After six years of preparation,
the Congress will be held in Kunming, China during July 27-31,
2009. The International Union of Anthropological and Ethnological
Sciences (IUAES) was established on August 23, 1948, when it
merged, in fact, with the International Congress of Anthropological
and Ethnological Sciences (ICAES), which was founded in 1934. The
latter was the product of various Congresses of Anthropological
Sciences, starting in 1865.

版权页：插图：There were many studies looking for mechanisms causing aging and longevity. Animportant and unexpected finding revealed that month of birth can be an indicator of lifeduration in adult women （after thirties）. Calendar year of birth, month of birth and manyother variables were used to predict life expectancy of parents, their age at child birth,nationality, early death of mothers （before twenties） or death of both parents. Finally it wasmonth of birth which appeared to be the most important factor. The present analysis whichtook into account month of birth of Polish women, inhabiting towns and villages, provedearlier results showing that most of women with the longest life span were born in thesecond and forth quarter of a year. The question arises as to the cause of this effect. Doesmonth of birth have a real effect on longevity？ It may indicate the critical periods in thepre-and postnatal development, e.g. deficiency in a vitamin supply. The results of otherstudies show that deficiency of folio acid, naicin and vitamins B12, B6, C or E may causedamages in DNA, leading to single or double-stranded gaps in it, oxidation defects or both.This, in turn, may cause earlier processes of aging. The deficiency of vitamins related to theseason of a year, e.g.: late winter or early spring together with the first or the second criticalperiod in child's development （the first trimester of pregnancy and the first three monthsafter birth） may explain the long life span of women born in February and August. Therelation between seasonal@ of birth and longevity confirms the aging theory emphasizingthe impact of earlier defects on human life span.
