EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF PUBLIC HEALTH

The European Journal of Public Health (ISSN 1101-1262) is a prestigious bimonthly academic journal published by Oxford University Press in the United Kingdom, dedicated to advancing the field of public health with a particular emphasis on European contexts. As an SCI-indexed publication that holds a 2022 impact factor of 4.4 and is classified in the third tier of the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ medical journal ranking, the journal maintains a strong academic reputation for publishing high-quality original research and comprehensive reviews. Its scope encompasses a broad spectrum of public health disciplines, including epidemiology, health policy, health promotion, environmental health, and social medicine, while rigorously evaluating the methodological soundness and data integrity of submitted manuscripts. Although it operates under a hybrid model that offers partial open access options, the journal is known for its stringent peer-review process and high rejection rates, reflecting the intense competition among scholars. Consequently, it serves as a highly respected venue for researchers who possess a robust methodological foundation and whose work demonstrates clear, applicable value to public health practice and policy.
