The LLCS brings together the broad range of specialist fields undertaking and using longitudinal and life course research.  It will help to reduce inter-disciplinary barriers and encourage the application of findings in policy and practice. 

The journal will be of interest internationally to academics and policy makers working at the interface of social, developmental and health sciences, including psychology, education, epidemiology, genetics, sociology, economics, demography, geography, criminology, political science, policy studies, history and statistics. 

It will also appeal to those concerned with all types of methodological development of relevance to life course and longitudinal research.

 

LLCS is grateful to the Nuffield Foundation for 3 years developmental support.
