About GSA
The Gerontological Society of America is the oldest and largest interdisciplinary organization devoted to research, education, and practice in the field of aging. GSA’s principal mission — and that of our 5,500 members — is to promote the study of aging and disseminate information to scientists, decision makers, and the general public. Founded in 1945, GSA is the driving force behind advancing innovation in aging — both domestically and internationally. Our members come from more than 50 countries. To further fulfill our mission, GSA assembles nearly 4,000 professionals from around the world at an Annual Scientific Meeting. This monumental event features more than 500 sessions each year. Additionally, we publish the field’s preeminent peer-reviewed journals.
