GeroScience

GeroScience (formerly Age; Journal of the American Aging Association) is a scientific journal focused on the biology of aging and on mechanistic studies using clinically relevant models of aging and chronic age-related diseases. The journal also publishes articles on health-related aspects of human aging, including biomarkers of aging, multisystem physiology of aging and pathophysiology of age-related diseases. [1].

In 2020, GeroScience was included in the Clarivate list of "Journals Suppressed from 2019 JCR Data" due the fact that percentage of all 2019 outgoing citations from the journal to 2018 or 2017 scholarly literature categorized as journal self-citations exceeded the usual ranges for journals in the Geriatrics & Gerontology category[3]. This issue has been addressed by the journal by including a request to authors to limit citations to papers published in Geroscience[4] and by publishing titles of papers included in Special Issues as a figure, instead of part of the reference list in editorials.
