As the average human life expectancy has increased, so too has the impact of ageing and age-related disease on our society. Ageing research
is now the focus of thousands of laboratories that include leaders in the areas of genetics, molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry,
and behaviour. Ageing Research Reviews (ARR) covers the trends in this field. It is designed to fill a large void, namely, a source for
critical reviews and viewpoints on emerging findings on mechanisms of ageing and age-related disease. Rapid advances in understanding
of mechanisms that control cellular proliferation, differentiation and survival are leading to new insight into the regulation of ageing.
From telomerase to stem cells to energy and oxyradical metabolism, this is an exciting new era in the multidisciplinary field of ageing
research. The cellular and molecular underpinnings of manipulations that extend lifespan, such as caloric restriction, are being identified
and novel approaches for preventing age-related diseases are being developed. ARR publishes articles on focussed topics selected from
the broad field of ageing research, with an emphasis on cellular and molecular mechanisms of the aging process and age-related diseases
such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and neurodegenerative disorders. Applications of basic ageing research to lifespan extension
and disease prevention are also covered in this journal.
