Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine whether stress predicts telomere length in individuals who hold executive-level positions. Telomeres are the caps at the end of each strand of DNA that may affect how cells age. Subjects will complete an online survey/interview and provide one blood sample or saliva samples. The goal is to understand whether stress predicts genetic markers of longevity.
