Professor Aslan is the first physician credited with using modern anti-aging medicine and was responsible for the foundation of the world's first Gerontology Institute in Bucharest in 1956. Professor Aslan made a huge impact in Geriatrics with the discovery and use of her creation Gerovital-H3 ®, which is widely accredited as the first modern anti-aging drug. Remarkably Professor Aslan achieved all this under the repressive Communist regime of the Romanian dictator - Ceausescu.
