Latest review

First review round: 4.7 weeks. Overall rating: 3 (good). Outcome: Accepted.

Motivation:
Nature Aging was only launched in January 2021, so at time of submission there was limited staff to follow up on slow reviewers and respond promptly to inquiries. Apart from the delays, the publishing process was comparable to other Nature Portfolio journals.
