Advances in Life Course Research publishes articles dealing with various aspects of the human life
course. Seeing life course research as an essentially interdisciplinary field of study, it invites and welcomes contributions from anthropology,
biosocial science, demography, epidemiology and statistics, gerontology, economics, management and organisation science, policy studies,
psychology, research methodology and sociology. Original empirical analyses, theoretical contributions, methodological studies and reviews
accessible to a broad set of readers are welcome. Articles might focus on specific events as well as on whole segments of the life course,
including determinants and consequences, social relationships and policy implications, without restrictions over time and space.
