Two new journals about evolution and medicine are about to start publishing. The Journal of Evolutionary Medicine, edited by Paul Ewald, is now accepting submissions. More on the other journal, Evolution, Medicine, and Public Health, when it is ready to accept submissions.
About the Journal of Evolutionary Medicine
The Journal of Evolutionary Medicine is a scholarly open access, peer-reviewed, and fully refereed journal. The goal of the journal is to improve understanding of medical issues through the integration of evolutionary principles and perspectives. Articles can specifically consider evolutionary patterns or processes, or simply incorporate an evolutionary perspective into the analysis of a medical topic. The journal welcomes submissions over a broad range of disciplines and approaches, including epidemiology, clinical studies, mathematical modeling, computer simulation, comparative studies, historical analyses, and health policy. The scale of inquiry spanned by the articles is comprehensive from molecular mechanisms and physiological processes to population characteristics and global health. The scope of conditions considered is also wide-ranging, inclusive of infectious, genetic, and environmental influences on health and disease and the interplay among these influences.
Aims and Scope
The Journal of Evolutionary Medicine publishes articles that involve application of evolutionary principles to the health sciences.
Papers will be accepted across the entire spectrum of scientific inquiry, including the following:
· mathematical modeling, computer simulations, and other theoretical analyses;
· perspectives, presentation of hypotheses, and historical articles;
· laboratory, clinical, epidemiological, and comparative studies;
· policy related to public health and research strategies.
