A special supplement focusing on the Social Determinants of Health in the on-going battle to prevent and control HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, sexually transmitted infections, and Tuberculosis. This supplement covers the constant barriers society faces when fighting and attempting to rectify diseases that have plagued our society for centuries. From economic to cultural to racial obstacles, Public Health Reports examines the “cause and effect” relationships that continue to be the main hindrance to decreasing the spread of these diseases. Hazel D. Dean ScD, MPH, Deputy Director and Kevin A. Fenton MD, PhD, Director, of the National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in Atlanta, Georgia were guest editors for the supplement.

Supplement on Oral Health for People Living with HIV/AIDS
Deadline: January 11, 2011
Oral disease has long been recongnized as one of the primary morbidities associated with HIV/AIDS. Good oral health is associated with improved quality of life among individuals living with HIV. For specific guidelines and more information, please click here.
To promote the many projects, internships, and other practice-related
work conducted by students, fellows, and recent graduates,
ASPH began a peer-reviewed Student Column in each of
the six issues of Public Health Reports printed annually.
Submit Your Work: Potential submitters may
be current students, at any level, from ASPH member schools;
current fellows; or working professionals up to two years
post-graduation. Public Health Reports may publish
an excellent project, internship, and other practice-related
work conducted during matriculation, during a fellowship,
or up to two years post-graduation. The review process will
be the same as that used for other submissions.
Become a Reviewer: Reviewers may be current
students at an ASPH member
school with at least one year experience
in a master’s level program, current fellows, or working
professionals up to two years post-graduation from an ASPH-member
school. Each potential reviewer must submit two letters of
recommendation from faculty members, a 1-2 page writing sample,
and be available to review abstracts and full articles for
at least nine months. To determine if potential reviewers
have a good understanding of the diversity of public health,
organizers may host a brief phone interview with each potential
reviewer.
To submit an article to the Student Column, send a short abstract
using an abstract
guideline form via email to John McElligott at jmcelligott@asph.org.
