The Journal of Healthy Aging and Exercise was launched in 2025  with the official mandate to publish cutting-edge and applied research in the fields of aging, health, and physical activity. As a joint initiative of the University of Tehran and Tehran University of Medical Sciences (its founding institutions), the journal provides a specialized platform for knowledge exchange among researchers, practitioners, and stakeholders in elderly health.

Committed to advancing scientific discourse, the journal publishes high-quality research on active lifestyles, prevention of age-related diseases, and quality-of-life enhancement for older adults—contributing to both academic knowledge and evidence-based health policies. We welcome original research articles, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, case studies, and policy-related papers, with particular emphasis on interdisciplinary work and studies bridging the gap between research and practical applications.

Through its mission, the Journal of Healthy Aging and Exercise seeks to foster a global understanding of healthy aging through the lens of sports science, promoting evidence-based strategies to improve the well-being of aging populations.
