Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As Section Editor-in-Chief of the Section “Skin Health” of the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, I am pleased to announce a new Special Issue on “Skin Health: Feature Review Papers”. This Special Issue will be a collection of systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and exceptional narrative reviews describing the state of the art and temporal development of a diverse set of topics related to skin health. These topics may comprise, for example, effects of UV radiation on different forms of skin cancer, determinants of allergic contact dermatitis, monitoring of temporal trends in skin diseases, geographical comparisons of disease frequency parameters of skin diseases, impact of artificial UV radiation on skin diseases, analysis of risk factors for rare skin diseases, allergic skin reactions following pharmaceutical interventions, skin toxicology relevant for regulatory purposes, quality of life of patients with chronic skin diseases, prevention of skin diseases, and public health impact of skin diseases. Other timely topics with a clear focus on non-clinical aspects of skin health are also welcome.
We hope this Special Issue is of interest to you and invite you to send a tentative title and short abstract to our editorial office ([email protected]) for evaluation before submission. Please note that selected papers are still subject to thorough peer review.
We look forward to receiving your work.
Prof. Dr. Olaf Gefeller
Guest Editor
