The journal is inspired by the recognition of two important pillars of the 24-hour well-being, physical activity and sleep. Led by Professor Corneel Vandelanotte as the Editor-in-Chief, the journal uniquely covers these two broad subject areas and embraces the development of knowledge and research that adopts a 24-hour approach when examining or manipulating physical activity, sedentary and sleep behaviors and their effect on health. The journal’s full aims and scope can be found here. The journal is also equipped with a strong editorial board that will support the manuscript evaluating process by providing timely and quality reviews. //www.geezinslaw.com/on-health/2021/11/11/the-pillars-of-wellbeing-activity-and-sleep-a-qa-with-corneel-vandelanotte/feed/ 0 The increasing human health costs of climate change, highlighted by the 2021 Lancet Countdown report //www.geezinslaw.com/bugbitten/2021/11/05/the-increasing-human-health-costs-of-climate-change-highlighted-by-the-2021-lancet-countdown-report/ //www.geezinslaw.com/bugbitten/2021/11/05/the-increasing-human-health-costs-of-climate-change-highlighted-by-the-2021-lancet-countdown-report/#respond Fri, 05 Nov 2021 09:00:22 +0000 Krisztian Magori Biology Developing World Health aedes Climate change health malaria Vibrio cholerae http://11.6365 < div风格= "浮动:左;margin-right: 5 px;" > < imgwidth="140" height="110" src="//www.geezinslaw.com/bugbitten/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2021/11/The_Earth_seen_from_Apollo_17-140x110.jpg" class="attachment-bones-thumb-140 size-bones-thumb-140" alt="" />Krisztian Magori reviews the findings of the 2021 Lancet Countdown report on the impact of climate change on human health, with particular attention to indicators relevant to the relationship between climate change and infectious, specifically vector-borne, diseases. //www.geezinslaw.com/bugbitten/2021/11/05/the-increasing-human-health-costs-of-climate-change-highlighted-by-the-2021-lancet-countdown-report/feed/ 0 Deep learning for coronavirus pandemic risk //www.geezinslaw.com/on-health/2021/10/29/deep-learning-for-coronavirus-pandemic-risk/ //www.geezinslaw.com/on-health/2021/10/29/deep-learning-for-coronavirus-pandemic-risk/#respond Fri, 29 Oct 2021 09:53:23 +0000 Zheng Kou Health Open Access Infectious Diseases of Poverty http://8.33336 < div风格= "浮动:左;margin-right: 5 px;" > < imgwidth="140" height="110" src="//www.geezinslaw.com/on-health/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/2021/10/AdobeStock_409578937-140x110.jpg" class="attachment-bones-thumb-140 size-bones-thumb-140" alt="" />Pandemic risk prediction for animal-origin coronavirus is very important for prevention and control of infectious diseases. A new study published in Infectious Diseases of Poverty proposes a deep learning method to predict the phenotype of human infection for animal-origin coronavirus.

Since then, they have been trained in many countries throughout the world with varying degrees of success. A new supplement examines the role and importance of community health workers. //www.geezinslaw.com/on-health/2021/10/12/community-health-workers-at-the-dawn-of-a-new-era/feed/ 0
