WELCOME TO THE PUBLIC HEALTH SCIENCES SUBMISSIONS PORTAL

Public Health Sciences (PHS) is an international, open-access, and peer-reviewed journal of public health. We publish work related to all aspects of public health, from global issues such as the impact of climate change on population health to studies conducted in rural locations.

PHS has a simple purpose: to share knowledge and expertise that improves health outcomes through better evidence, better decisions, and better systems. The journal aims to work with the public health community, at all levels, to publish rigorous qualitative and quantitative research and analysis to drive evidence-based public health policy and practice.

PHS welcomes submissions on a range of topics:

  • Health policy
  • Health systems
  • Gender issues in health
  • Medical sciences
  • Mental and behavioral health
  • Digital health
  • Infectious diseases
  • Non-communicable diseases
  • Chronic diseases
  • Disease outbreaks.

We also welcome submissions that use a broad range of methods from the social and biomedical sciences and focus on the social determinants of health and well-being, including:

  • Nutrition
  • Socio-economic status
  • Health literacy
  • Physical activity
  • The environment

As an international journal, we embrace diversity and encourage contributions from researchers of all ages across the globe. By providing a platform especially geared toward early career researchers, we seek to nurture emerging talent and support the development of the next generation of public health scholars. We are more than just a publication—we are a community dedicated to empowering young researchers and informing collaborative, evidence-based, peer-reviewed research output in medical and public health sciences. We welcome you to join us in advancing the next generation of academics and shaping the field of public health sciences through high-impact research and scholarly contributions.
