About the Journal

JTPHR is a global, peer-reviewed scholarly journal dedicated to advancing public health through translational and implementation-focused research. The journal prioritizes studies that move evidence from clinical, laboratory, and community settings into practical interventions that create measurable impact on population health outcomes. It serves as a bridge between health science discovery, public health systems, and real-world practice, making it a vital platform for researchers, clinicians, public health practitioners, and policymakers. The journal welcomes multidisciplinary submissions across disease prevention, health promotion, public health program evaluation, policy implementation studies, digital health translation, One Health innovations, and data-driven intervention outcomes. JTPHR is committed to supporting research that influences public health decision-making, improves community health actions, and accelerates innovation especially in low- and middle-income regions. By focusing on actionable science, transparency, ethical rigor, and societal relevance, JTPHR aims to become a trusted source of deployed knowledge that shapes healthier populations across the world.

Scope & Mission

The journal publishes high-quality, peer-reviewed research that converts scientific, clinical, and community health evidence into real-world public health practice and policy impact.

It bridges the gap between discovery → population health solutions → implementation → measurable societal benefit.
