Editorial Team

We are dedicated to maintaining best practice in peer-review, consistency in advising on all aspects of research and publication ethics. JPHDC’s editorial board is responsible for defining journal’s editorial policies and works closely with external academic editors and the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) to ensure that the journals’ editorial processes are consistent with recognised best practice in scholarly publishing. Collectively, our team has a wealth of experience in public health and related disciplines.
