Vol. 2 No. 5 (2026)

It is with great pleasure that we introduce Volume 2, Issue 5 of what was formerly known as Frontiers in Preventive Medicine.
Starting with this issue, the journal is officially renamed Journal of Public Health and Preventive Medicine.
This change reflects our expanded vision: to provide an authoritative, inclusive platform for research that bridges public health, clinical prevention, and population health science. The new ISSN (3071-4265) has been assigned to the journal, while the former ISSN remains linked to our historical archive. All DOIs and bibliographic records remain stable and fully citable. We thank all authors, reviewers, and editors for their invaluable contributions. As we begin this new chapter under our new name, we continue to welcome high‑quality submissions in public health, preventive medicine, health policy, and interdisciplinary research.
Together, let us advance the science of prevention and health equity.
