Call for papers: Commemorative collection honoring Dr. Judith Campisi

"This collection is published in memory of Professor 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."

BUFFALO, NY — May 1, 2025 — Aging (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 Professor 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. Her legacy continues to inspire generations of scientists working to decode the complex biology of senescent cells and their impact on health and disease.

We welcome original research articles, reviews, and perspectives on topics including:

Fundamental mechanisms of senescence induction and maintenance

Regulation and context-specific roles of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP)

Beneficial and detrimental effects of senescent cells in vivo

Senescence in development, aging, regeneration, and age-related diseases

Biomarkers, imaging, and tools for senescence detection and quantification

Therapeutic targeting of senescent cells: senolytics, senomorphics, and clinical translation

This Special Collection is guest edited by Han Li and Irina Conboy, both internationally recognized leaders in the study of senescence and aging.

Submission Details: Submission Deadline: January 15, 2026

Manuscript Format: Please follow the journal’s submission guidelines

Peer Review: All submissions will undergo a rigorous peer-review process
