AJPH said it is inviting any epidemiological, social and clinical research and evaluation articles, perspectives and critical reviews of specific challenges and insights into public health emergency management. The publication also said that papers which highlight transformational practices and evaluate policies that demonstrate advancement across 15 public health preparedness capabilities defined by the CDC are encouraged.

Topics of interest for the supplement include best practice models, research gaps, policies and implications related to biosurveillance, community resilience, countermeasures, mitigation strategies, incident management, information management and surge management.

AJPH is encouraging authors to visit its website (www.ajph.org) to view instructions and guidelines for submission. All manuscripts must be submitted no later than Jan. 15 via the online submission portal provided.
