Submit a manuscript to the Journal 'Annals of Human Biology', for an article collection on 'Health Inequalities Over the Life Course: A Biosocial Approach'.
Submission Deadline

 

The editors seek submissions that situate health and inequality as intertwined dynamic processes, without slotting these processes into fixed biological or social categories.  Research can consider any health outcome or health-related measure. Research will take an interdisciplinary biosocial perspective and use rigorous methodology in the analysis of data. Research using novel analytical approaches are encouraged.

Topics include:

  • Biological embedding – how the social “gets under the skin”;
  • A life course epidemiological approach to the development of health inequalities, including research on the developmental origins of health and disease (DOHaD);
  • The role of local environments (e.g. neighbourhood deprivation, pollution) in health inequalities;
  • Evaluation of the impact of policy on health inequalities.

Annals of Human Biology accepts the following types of articles:

  • Research Papers
  • Review Articles
  • Short Reports
  • Human Biological Surveys
  • Commentaries
