Scope and Topic Priorities

We welcome original research, systematic reviews, outbreak investigations, surveillance reports, and translational studies that improve prevention and treatment of air and water borne diseases. Submissions should demonstrate rigorous methodology, ethical compliance, and actionable insights for clinical and public health practice.

Public Health Impact

Air and water borne disease research has immediate consequences for community safety. We prioritize evidence that informs outbreak control, exposure reduction, vaccination strategy, water system safety, and risk communication. Studies that translate environmental monitoring into practical interventions or policy recommendations are especially encouraged. We welcome work addressing climate related disease risks and preparedness planning.

Airborne Transmission

Complex transmission pathways can delay effective intervention.
We prioritize studies on respiratory pathogens, aerosols, and mitigation strategies.

Waterborne Outbreaks

Outbreak detection and source tracing can be difficult.
We seek evidence on water system monitoring, contamination control, and rapid response.

Environmental Surveillance

Incomplete surveillance limits public health planning.
We welcome environmental sampling, modeling, and risk assessment studies.

Intervention and Policy

Evidence can be fragmented across disciplines.
We encourage policy and implementation research with measurable outcomes.

Article Types We Publish

The journal accepts a broad range of manuscript types to ensure new knowledge reaches clinicians and public health teams quickly. All submissions receive the same rigorous peer review and editorial care.

Why Publish With Us

Air and water borne disease research carries urgent implications for community health. We focus on speed, clarity, and integrity so your work can inform practice while maintaining strict peer review standards. Our audience includes epidemiologists, microbiologists, environmental health specialists, and frontline clinicians.

Interdisciplinary work is encouraged. Studies that connect environmental monitoring with clinical outcomes, or policy interventions with community transmission data, are especially valuable. We also welcome modeling studies that support preparedness, risk prediction, and resource allocation.

Transparent APC Model

Unclear fees make budgeting difficult for researchers and institutions.
A single APC covers review, production, and open access delivery after acceptance.

Editorial Expertise

Generic reviews can miss public health nuance.
Specialist editors align reviewers to environmental health and infectious disease topics.

Global Visibility

Paywalls limit access for public health agencies.
Open access with DOI registration expands readership worldwide.

Ethical Standards

Outbreak research requires strict consent and data integrity.
We enforce ethics approvals, trial reporting standards, and conflict disclosures.
