Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets – Therapeutic targets for longevity

About the special issue

In 2023, Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets will explore cutting edge drug targets for longevity. Longevity is a vibrant and rapidly burgeoning field; however, preclinical researchers are still unable to translate their achievements to the clinic. The journal will scrutinize key approaches and fundamental hurdles for translational success. Cellular senescence, signaling pathways, metabolism, epigenetics, and stem cell exhaustion will come under the spotlight. This issue will become an unparalleled source of information for trailblazing academics, researchers in pharma, and investors whose vision is to develop applicable anti-aging drugs of the future.
The issue welcomes authors to submit relevant editorials, reviews, perspectives, interviews and original research.

If you are interested in contributing, or would like to learn more, then please reach out to the Commissioning Editor, Ryan Gilroy , who will be happy to assist.
