Emerging Themes in Epidemiology: Form and function.
Emerging Themes in Epidemiology is a new, online Open Access journal. This editorial - which coincides with the Journal's launch - describes its unique review and publication model. The editorial board and review process of ETE will be managed by research degree students and will therefore be a training ground for students (though final editorial control rests with senior faculty Associate Editors). With our mix of Open Access publishing and the strong involvement of students in editing and reviewing, we believe that Emerging Themes in Epidemiology will be a progressive medium for promoting new ideas in epidemiology.
