Zoonoses and Public Health

Aims & Scope

Zoonoses and Public Health brings together veterinary and human health researchers and policy-makers by providing a venue for publishing integrated and global approaches to zoonoses and public health.

The Editors will consider papers that focus on timely collaborative and multi-disciplinary research in zoonoses and public health.

This journal provides rapid publication of original papers, reviews, and potential discussion papers embracing this collaborative spirit.

Papers should advance the scientific knowledge of the sources, transmission, prevention and control of zoonoses and be authored by scientists with expertise in areas such as microbiology, virology, parasitology and epidemiology.

Articles that incorporate recent data into new methods, applications, or approaches (e.g. statistical modeling) which enhance public health are strongly encouraged.
