Geriatrics and Gerontology

Gerontology is becoming an increasingly important research area as the percentage of older adults in the population continues to grow. Our journal Gerontology provides a primary source of high-quality papers covering all aspects of aging in humans and animals. It serves as an ideal information tool for all readers interested in the topic of aging addressed from a broad perspective.
The book series, Interdisciplinary Topics in Gerontology and Geriatrics, presents a comprehensive and integrated approach to the problems of aging and serves as a forum for a unified concept of gerontology. The individual volumes within the series give an overall view of the aging process, novel ideas, and original approaches to healthy aging as well as age-related functional decline.
Due to its interdisciplinary nature, the subject field of Gerontology and Geriatrics is strongly connected with other publications in our portfolio such as the journals Dementia and Geriatric Cognitive Disorders and Neurodegenerative Diseases.
