The Review plays a significant role in fulfilling some of the priority functions of the OIE. This peer-reviewed journal contains in-depth studies devoted to current scientific and technical developments in animal (and aquatic) health and veterinary public health world-wide, food safety, animal welfare, and wildlife. The Review benefits from the advice of an Editorial Board and a Scientific Advisory Board composed of top scientists from across the globe.
The Review will be of interest to officers of Veterinary Services, research scientists, biologists, field veterinarians, decision-makers in animal (including aquatic animal) health services, animal health and production scientists, staff of faculties of veterinary and related sciences (medicine, biology, agronomy, fisheries, food science) and all those involved in animal production, transformation and distribution. Indeed, the particular distinction of this publication lies in relating specialised research to the practical problems encountered in safeguarding animal health and veterinary public health, which is essential for the improvement of animal production and the protection of public health.
Two of the three issues of the Review published each year are devoted to a specific theme, while the third issue is reserved for a selection of papers submitted spontaneously by authors from around the globe. Each thematic issue is co-ordinated by at least one internationally-renowned expert in the relevant field, and articles are written by a range of top world specialists who are able to give a privileged insight into the theme presented. Authors wishing to submit a paper for publication in the Review are invited to consult the Instructions to Authors.
Articles are published in English, French or Spanish and, on occasion, in at least two of the three languages. In all cases, a summary is given in the three languages.
Summaries are posted on the OIE website shortly before the publication date (on the pages which provide a presentation of each issue of the Review) and PDF files of full-text articles are available immediately after publication of the hard copy (on the pages on which the summary is given). All issues from 2001 onwards are already online and previous issues will be available soon.
