EXPERIMENTAL GERONTOLOGY

Experimental Gerontology (ISSN 0531-5565) is a monthly international journal published by Elsevier in the Netherlands, serving as a dedicated venue for rigorous research in the field of aging. Indexed in the Science Citation Index (SCI), the journal focuses on the biological and medical aspects of senescence, encompassing critical areas such as cellular aging, molecular mechanisms, and the development of geriatric disease models. While it maintains a recognized standing in the gerontology community, its impact factor is generally considered moderate, placing it typically in the third or fourth quartile of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) journal ranking for medical and biological sciences. As a subscription-based publication rather than an open-access one, it appeals to researchers seeking a specialized platform for foundational and translational studies in aging biology. Authors are advised to carefully align their manuscript’s specific focus with the journal’s scope, as acceptance rates and review timelines can vary depending on the thematic relevance of the work, making it a suitable option for solid contributions that may not necessarily target the highest-impact generalist journals.
