About

The demographics of aging –whether differences in life expectancy or shouldering the burden of care for our aging populations—reflect that aging is indeed a women’s issue. In the field of Aging and Public Health, there are many highly influential and successful women who are contributing to the field and tackling important questions about risk factors for successful aging as well intervention strategies for promoting health and quality of life across the life-course.

This Research Topic would like to highlight female contributions to Public Health, specifically in the field of Aging, and will therefore welcome:

• General perspectives on a specific field of research inspired, started or sparked by a woman

• Articles celebrating outstanding female researchers and their contributions to the field of Aging and Public Health

• Public health studies led by women researching the health and quality of life for older adult populations

To be considered for this collection, the first or last author should be researchers identifying as female, and we recommend early career researchers to team up with senior female colleagues. We welcome studies focused on successful aging throughout the life-course. All article types will be considered.
