Direct Research Journal of Public Health and Environmental Technology
Aims & Scope
Direct Research Journal of Public Health and Environmental Technology aims to publish articles that focus on Public Health and Environmental Technology.
Types of Articles
The journal welcomes the submission of full-length research articles, short communications, and review articles. In addition, the journal also welcomes letters to the editor and commentaries https://directresearchpublisher.org/drjphet/submit-manuscript .
Regular articles: These articles should describe new and carefully confirmed findings, and research methods should be given in sufficient detail for others to verify the work. The length of a full paper should be the minimum required to describe and interpret the work clearly.
Short Communications: Short Communication is suitable for recording the results of complete small investigations or giving details of new models, innovative methods, or techniques. The style of the main sections need not conform to that of full-length papers. Short communications are 2 to 4 printed pages (about 6 to 12 manuscript pages) in length.
Reviews: Submissions of reviews and perspectives covering topics of current interest are welcome and encouraged. Reviews should be concise and no longer than 4-6 printed pages (about 12 to 18 manuscript pages). Reviews manuscripts are also peer-reviewed.
