Rejuvenation Research is a peer-reviewed bimonthly scientific journal published by Mary Ann Liebert that investigates rejuvenation.
The editor-in-chief is Aubrey de Grey. The journal addresses such issues as cardiovascular aging, cell immortalization and senescence, cloning/Embryonic stem cells, DNA damage/repair, growth factors, immunology, invertebrate lifespan, neurodegeneration, tissue engineering, public policy, gene targeting, gene therapy, and genomics.
Appreciations of the journal are rather divergent, with editorial board member Michael R. Rose calling it "a heroic effort to jump-start research on postponing or slowing human aging",[1] whereas others judge it as being "somewhat fringy"[2] or "on the fringe of gerontology".[3]
