The following is a note from the editor-in-chief of Chronic Diseases and Injuries in Canada: Chronic Diseases and Injuries in Canada has formally changed its name to include the word "Injuries". The editors of the journal would be interested in seeing papers that support or challenge current platforms for injury risk assessment and/or make novel use of available data sources to report on injury risk factors. They would also be interested in receiving manuscripts of structured reviews of population interventions meant to reduce injury risk in the Canadian population.
