Editorial
- Prof. Dr. Jürgen Howe
The 4. International Social and Applied Gerontology Symposium in Turkey from 28-30 April 2010 in Antalya provided us reason enough to change the well thought-out planning and main emphasis of GeroBilim. The p ro g r a m a n d c o n t r i b u t i o n s demonstrated the innovative power of Gerontology in Turkey. So the editorial board decided to make an offer to the authors to publish their results of research in GeroBilim. Issues of GeroBilim in 2010 will therefore be comprised mainly of selected lectures from the Symposium.

So the National Association of Social and Applied Gerontology in Turkey decided to publish four numbers a year from 2010. To cope with the diverse tasks to perform an edition of a a scientific journal it has been decided to found an editorial board. Members of this board, starting their work in 2010, will be Prof. Dr. Juergen Howe (Editor-in-Chief), Technische Universität Braunschweig, Germany; Prof. Dr. Mary Gilhooly (Editor), Brunel University West London, UK and Prof. Dr. Ismail Tufan (Editor), Akdeniz University Antalya, Turkey.
