Guest Editors: Message from the Guest Editors

Dr. Livia D’Angelo Brain ageing is a complex process of all vertebrate Department of Veterinary organisms and is influenced by systemic, genetic, and Medicine and Animal environmental factors. In course of ageing, the brain Productions, University of Naples Federico II, Naples, Italy undergoes general morpho-physiological changes that [email protected] include shrinkage of brain mass and myelin, decline of synaptic connections, and decreased neurotransmitter Dr. Paolo de Girolamo release. These modifications are associated with cognitive Department of Veterinary decline in information processing speed, memory, Medicine, University of Naples reasoning, and executive function. Furthermore, ageing is Federico II, 80137 Naples, Italy one of the major contributing factors for [email protected] neurodegenerations and other brain diseases. Much of Prof. Dr. María Trinidad what we know about the impact of ageing on brain comes Herrero from model organisms, which have been instrumental to Faculty of Medicine, Universidad identify factors that cause and modulate the ageing de Murcia, Murcia, Spain process. In this collection, we aim to address various [email protected] aspects of the neurobiology of ageing and ageing related disorders, including a) new experimental approaches to modulate the ageing process with consequences on brain Deadline for manuscript morpho-; b) the identification of genetic and submissions: environmental factors related to brain ageing; and c) new 28 February 2022 imaging techniques and bioinformatics approaches to detect changes in the brain during ageing.
