We think broadly that academic communities extend beyond educational institutions and include medical centers, hospitals, departments of public health, community organizations and partners, and policy makers. Building a healthy academic community requires diversity in people, thought, and research. We encourage submissions that cover a variety of wellness topics including health promotion, wellness programming and management, environmental health and safety, epidemiology, preventive health care, and evidence-based wellness.
