Gerontology focuses on the aging process and its implications for health and well-being. Research examines physical functioning, cognitive health, and balance control in older adults, often in relation to conditions like diabetes and sarcopenia. Studies also explore psychological aspects of aging, such as essentialist beliefs, and the effectiveness of interventions like exercise and balance training for fall prevention.
