 ABSTRACT = {Biodemography has emerged and grown over the last fifteen years,
             with loyal and farsighted support from its patrons. As it enters
             what might be called its adolescence as a field, it faces
             challenges along with abounding opportunities. One challenge is to
             continue to generate knowledge that contributes to human health and
             well-being. A second is to insist on high standards of quality
             control within its cross-disciplinary environment. Opportunities
             appear in a variety of directions, including mathematical modeling,
             genomic analyses, and field studies of aging in the wild.},
