Auxology is the biological science that focuses on the study of human growth and development. This field examines various aspects of growth, including both the physical and biological mechanisms that influence growth patterns, as well as the environmental, genetic, and nutritional factors that can affect growth throughout the human lifespan. Auxologists often study growth trends in children and adolescents to assess health and development, identify growth disorders, and understand population health dynamics.
