Age and Ageing Journal, the esteemed publication of the British Geriatrics Society (BGS), plays a pivotal role in advancing the field of geriatric medicine and gerontology. As the leading peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the medical care of older adults, it serves as a vital platform for disseminating high-quality research, clinical insights, and innovative practices that address the complexities of aging. The journal covers a broad spectrum of topics, including but not limited to, elder care, nutrition, public health, and health policy, reflecting the multidisciplinary nature of geriatric care.
Under the stewardship of the BGS, Age and Ageing is not only a repository of knowledge but also a catalyst for change in the treatment and prevention of age-related conditions. The journal actively engages with key projects aimed at improving the quality of life for older adults, such as initiatives focused on enhancing medical education, promoting interdisciplinary collaboration among healthcare professionals, and advocating for evidence-based practices in geriatric psychiatry and rehabilitation.
As Editorial Manager, I leverage the expertise of a diverse team of contributors—ranging from geriatricians and old age psychiatrists to nurses and therapists—to ensure that the journal remains at the forefront of research and discourse in the field. By fostering an environment of collaboration and innovation, Age and Ageing not only informs practitioners but also influences health policy and public health initiatives aimed at promoting better health outcomes in later life. Through its commitment to excellence, the journal continues to shape the future of geriatric medicine, making significant strides in the understanding and management of the aging population.
