"The International Journal of Paleopathology (IJP) carves out a dedicated academic space for communication, collaborations and cutting-edge research in paleopathology - human and non-human.
As the new editor-in-chief of IJP, I am energized by the challenge of creating an academic journal format that seeks to encourage research and foster interdisciplinary communication. As the only dedicated paleopathology journal in the community, we are extremely proud to have the designation of Official Journal of the Paleopathology Association.
Looking ahead to our first year, we will be publishing a series of inaugural essays by leading paleopathologists focusing on General Paleopathology, the History of Paleopathology, Non-human Paleopathology, and Mummy Science. The issues of IJP will include articles, case studies, book reviews, technical notes and brief communications on topics such as ancient animal and human health, dental disease, historical paleopathology, imaging technologies, paleohistology, and paleoparasitology."

Paleopathology is the study and application of methods and techniques for studying diseases and related conditions from skeletal and soft tissue remains. The description of ways in which these methods can be applied to the reconstruction of health, disease and activity patterns in the past is central to the discipline. The International Journal of Paleopathology (IJP) will publish original and significant articles on human and animal diseases, based upon the study of physical remains, including osseous, dental, and preserved soft tissues. Papers dealing with text-based evidence relating to disease in the past (rather than history of medicine) will also be published.
