The Lancet Child & Adolescent Health is an independent journal with an international perspective, and a strong clinical focus. The monthly journal presents the most influential and innovative practice-changing original research, as well as authoritative reviews and insightful opinion pieces to promote the health of the whole child, from the fetal period through to young adulthood.
We invite submissions that will directly impact clinical practice or child health across the disciplines of general paediatrics, adolescent medicine, or child development, and across all paediatric subspecialties including (but not limited to) allergy and immunology, cardiology, critical care, endocrinology, fetal and neonatal medicine, gastroenterology, haematology, hepatology and nutrition, infectious diseases, neurology, oncology, psychiatry, respiratory medicine, and surgery.
The Lancet Child & Adolescent Health offers rapid publication of research online within 8–12 weeks from submission. Papers are subjected to The Lancet's usual rigorous standards of external and statistical peer review, and edited by experienced copy editors to the highest standards.
