年齡是一個(gè)季度，國(guó)際，同行評(píng)審的雜志，發(fā)表有關(guān)研究的文章在生物學(xué)的老化和研究生物醫(yī)學(xué)應(yīng)用，影響老化。要考慮的文章范圍包括進(jìn)化生物學(xué)、生物物理學(xué)、遺傳學(xué)、基因組學(xué)、蛋白質(zhì)組學(xué)、分子生物學(xué)、細(xì)胞生物學(xué)、生物化學(xué)、內(nèi)分泌學(xué)、免疫學(xué)、生理學(xué)、藥理學(xué)、神經(jīng)科學(xué)和心理學(xué)。如果研究結(jié)果與衰老的潛在生物學(xué)機(jī)制有關(guān)，也將考慮有關(guān)臨床研究的文章。此類研究應(yīng)反映的不只是與老年患者的護(hù)理和治療有關(guān)的問(wèn)題。有關(guān)老齡化的社會(huì)、經(jīng)濟(jì)和政治問(wèn)題的論文一般不會(huì)被考慮，除非它們與生物醫(yī)學(xué)老年學(xué)直接相關(guān)。除了原創(chuàng)性研究的手稿外，該雜志還積極征求對(duì)生物醫(yī)學(xué)老年學(xué)重要課題的研究綜述。其他類型的手稿也可以接受，如評(píng)論、辯論和會(huì)議報(bào)告。

AGE is a quarterly, international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes articles related to research in the biology of aging and research on biomedical applications that impact aging. The scope of articles to be considered include evolutionary biology, biophysics, genetics, genomics, proteomics, molecular biology, cell biology, biochemistry, endocrinology, immunology, physiology, pharmacology, neuroscience, and psychology. Articles concerning clinical studies will also be considered if the results relate to underlying biological mechanisms of aging. Such studies should reflect more than issues related to the care and treatment of geriatric patients. Papers concerned with social, economic, and political issues of aging will generally not be considered unless they relate directly to biomedical gerontology. In addition to manuscripts emerging from original research, the journal actively solicits research reviews of important topics in biomedical gerontology. Other types of manuscripts are also acceptable, such as commentaries, debates, and meeting reports.
