Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Chronic diseases impose an enormous burden on individuals, families, and society, their prevalence is likely to increase over time due to urbanization, lifestyle changes, and the aging population. Therefore, chronic diseases may be influenced by a combination of genetics and environmental determinants of health that often coexist and interact with each other. Chronic disease epidemiology evolve through descriptive, analytical, and experimental approaches.
This special issue of International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health (IJERPH) focuses on Chronic Disease Epidemiology Research. Papers addressing these topics are invited for this Special Issue, the primary goal of studies should be the identification of the determinants of disease in order to decrease morbidity and mortality.
