We would like to inform JGG readers, authors, editors and contributors that effective 1 January 2026 JGG will be published by MDPI, while the Italian Society of Gerontology and Geriatrics (SIGG) retains journal ownership. For this reason, moving forward the manuscripts submission system will be closed and we ask instead to please submit to the journal via https://www.mdpi.com/journal/jgg. Thank you for your understanding and attention.

The Journal of Gerontology and Geriatrics (JGG) is the official journal of the Italian Society of Gerontology and Geriatrics (SIGG), which will be an international, interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal concerning frontiers and advances in the field of aging.
