Call for Papers

• The Gerontologist Special Collection: Gerontology in a Time of Pandemic
• Journal of Gerontology: Series B welcomes brief Research Reports focused on the Covid-19 crisis and its implications for older adults. These submissions will be on a fast-track review schedule; accepted manuscripts will be published in a Virtual Collection in mid- to late-2020. Individual articles will be made available on a rolling basis via Advance Access. Reports may include the analysis of new or established data resources, evidence-based commentaries, or theoretical articles with a well-reasoned and novel perspective on the crisis. The maximum allowable word count is 2,000 words. The word count includes title page, abstract and text. The reference list is limited to no more than 30 entries, and up to 3 data elements. Queries should be directed to Deborah Carr (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) for Social Sciences, and Derek Isaacowitz (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) for Psychological Sciences. Manuscripts may be uploaded to JG: Psychological Sciences at mc.manuscriptcentral.com/jgps and JG: Social Sciences at mc.manuscriptcentral.com/jgss. We will accept submissions through at least June 15, 2020 for the rapid-review Virtual Collection. After that time, paper ideas should be sent to the editor before submission.

From Partners

• Journal Articles on Coronavirus and Related Topics (Oxford University Press)
• Journal Articles and Books on Coronavirus (Taylor and Francis)
• Expanded Articles on Coronavirus on PubMed (National Library of Medicine) 
• Rapid Review Question Bank and Prioritization (Cochrane Library)
  The Rapid Review Question Bank has been re-developed this week to clearly show reviews being done by Cochrane, those being done elsewhere, and open priority questions to be addressed. This list does not in itself act as title registration or a commitment from Cochrane to publish. It is a repository of questions submitted by stakeholders that is undergoing constant prioritization to identify which should be pursued within Cochrane. Showing those that are underway with key partners is not exhaustive and the main purpose is to prevent us prioritizing questions that we know are already being addressed.
