[Guest guest]

Dr. Roy Walford, pioneer in techniques of calorie restriction for

extension of life span, has died in UCLA-Santa Monica Hospital today

of complications of ALS, a

rare muscle wasting disease with no well-established modifiable risk

factors. Dr. Walford was two months short of his 80th birthday.

Present were Dr. Walford's daughter Lisa and son Peter, as well as

friends of the family. Dr. John Braun of UCLA plans to raise funds

for a endowed chair at UCLA in Dr. Walford's honor. Funeral

arrangements have not been announced, but cremation is planned for

the body, with

scattering of ashes at sea.
