IN REMEMBRANCE
We are saddened to announce the death of Aging Founding Editor, Professor Judith (Judy) Campisi, who passed on January 19, 2024. Dr. Campisi (1948-2024) was a member of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States and recipient of several awards, including two MERIT awards from the National Institute on Aging, the Olav Thon Foundation Prize and the Ipsen Foundation Longevity Prize. We all will remember Dr. Campisi for her passion in pursuing groundbreaking research that established cellular senescence as a key process in cancer and aging. Full Bio
CALL FOR PAPERS
Aging-US invites submissions for a Special Collection dedicated to the theme of cellular senescence, spanning its basic mechanisms, physiological and pathological functions, and clinical applications. This collection is published in memory of Dr. Judith Campisi, a pioneering force in the field of cellular senescence whose groundbreaking work shaped the understanding of senescence in aging, cancer, and tissue homeostasis.
