Aims and scope

Advances in Gerontology is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes reviews, original articles, short communications, and opinion articles covering a wide range of areas of gerontological research aimed at understanding the mechanisms of aging and finding ways to combat it. Priority is given to publications devoted to the fundamental mechanisms that may determine the increase in the probability of death of living organisms, including humans, with age. Articles aimed at identifying various factors of both chemical and physical nature that could potentially help slow down the aging process are also welcome. It is assumed that the authors of articles submitted to the journal strictly comply with the requirements for correct experimental gerontological research, both in methodological terms and in terms of biomedical research ethics. Purely descriptive works that do not analyze the mechanisms underlying the observed patterns are not published. No publication fee is charged to authors who are not interested in open access to their articles.
