Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Children is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal focused on the dissemination of clinical, epidemiological, and translational science relevant to children’s health.
Children made significant breakthroughs throughout 2021. We would like to express our appreciation for the contributions and support of EiCs, EBMs, GEs, societies, authors, reviewers, and all scholars whose study is focused on child health and child health related fields. To share and celebrate these contributions, have issued the New Year Special Issue “Focus on Children 2021: Challenges and Opportunities towards the Future”.
This Special Issue aims to collect original articles, reviews, case reports, and other contributions on the current state and future of child health and child-health-related fields. This Special Issue will reflect on the achievements, scientific progress, and “hot topics” of the journal Children in 2021, presenting a collection of the trends and updates in cutting-edge solutions to child health issues in the future.
