title: Quantitative analysis of current trends in the development of biology of aging: scientometric and expert values.
abstract: Modern trends in the development of biology of aging have been assessed quantitatively by means of the scientometric and collective expert values methods as a part of the science-of-science analysis. The main regularities in the development of biology of aging during the period 1975 to 1985 are established and their comparative significance determined. The proposed complex approach as part of a science-of-science analysis allows an objective quantitation of the development dynamics of present basic research in gerontology.
