npj Aging considers research that explores all aspects of the biology of aging, applying this knowledge to clinical practice, and addressing the broader implications of aging on individuals and society. The journal considers clinical studies as well as interventions aiming to extend healthy longevity. The journal covers a broad range of topics including but not limited to: Molecular mechanisms of aging, Cellular senescence and aging-related signaling pathways, Epigenetic changes associated with aging, Mitochondrial dysfunction and aging, Proteostasis and protein homeostasis in aging, Immunosenescence, inflammation, and immune system aging, Neurodegenerative diseases associated with aging and cognitive aging, Cardiovascular aging and diseases, Musculoskeletal aging and conditions, Age-related vision and hearing impairment, Metabolic changes and disorders associated with aging, Hormonal changes and endocrine system alterations in aging, Geriatric syndromes and multimorbidity in older adults, Sociology and epidemiology of aging, as well as rehabilitation. The journal offers more choice to Nature Portfolio authors who are seeking a fully open-access and more inclusive platform for publishing their work. The journal is led by experts in aging who collaborate to cultivate high-quality research. As part of the npj Series , this journal focuses on fostering global partnerships with the research community and other Springer Nature journals.
