Abstract

[Extract] The first PubMed-listed journal dedicated entirely to the field of travel medicine, the Journal of Travel Medicine, was founded in 1994 as an official publication of the International Society of Travel Medicine. Its mission then, as now, was to facilitate the publication of up-to-date research on the prevention and treatment of travel-related disease and injury, clinic management, patient and staff education, immunizations, the impact of travel on host countries, military medicine, and problems of migrants and refugees, as well as providing a forum for information on diseases such as malaria, travelers' diarrhea, hepatitis, vector-borne illnesses, tuberculosis, sexually transmitted infections and acquired immune deficiency syndrome, jet lag, altitude sickness, and so on.
