Abstract

Professor Vladimir Korenchevsky formed the British Society for Research on Ageing in 1939 and stimulated world wide interest in gerontology over the following 20 years. His message came to Australia via Dr David Wallace in 1957 and Dr Arthur Everitt in 1960 and led to the separate development of the Gerontological Society of NSW in 1962 and the Australian Association of Gerontology (AAG) in 1964. Gerontological societies and divisions of the AAG were formed in other States subsequently.
