Advice from a 104-year-old PhD student
In October 2020, Lucio Chiquito submitted his PhD thesis at the age of 104. Mr Chiquito is from Medellín, Colombia. He started his PhD at the University of Manchester 77 years ago, held a successful career as an engineer throughout his life, and was the co-founder of Colombia's largest energy company. He attributes his longevity to being an avid reader, his spirituality, diet, frequent exercise, steadfast persistence and discipline.
