The Journal of Geriatric Medicine (ISSN: 2630-5259) is a scholarly open access journal that operates on an international and interdisciplinary level. It is dedicated to publishing original research articles and reviews that delve into various aspects of gerontology research and the study of the ageing population, as well as the challenges encountered by the elderly. Given the global prevalence of the ageing population issue, gerontology research has garnered significant attention. Our primary objective is to foster academic exchanges within the scholarly community by providing a platform for the detailed publication of research conducted by scholars.
Each paper undergoes a rigorous review process by a minimum of two international reviewers, ensuring high quality and credibility. Once accepted, all papers will be accessible online for wider dissemination.
