In recognition of the high prevalence of heart failure in older adults and the need for additional research in this arena, the Journal of Cardiac Failure has issued a Call for Papers on Geriatric Heart Failure for a special focus issue to be published in December 2016.

The Journal is seeking original research manuscripts, focused reviews, brief reports, and research letters that address any aspect of heart failure in older adults, including but not limited to basic mechanisms, epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, management, and prognosis.

The deadline for submission of manuscripts for consideration for the focus issue is July 31, 2016.  All papers will undergo expedited review with prompt turnaround. All submissions should have a note in the cover letter that they are being submitted for the focus issue.
