Archives of Disease in Childhood
Archives of Disease in Childhood (ADC) is the RCPCH's scientific journal. Published since 1926, it is now recognised as one of the leading paediatric journals in the world. The Editor is Dr R. Mark Beattie.
ADC focuses on all aspects of child health and disease from the perinatal period (in the Fetal and Neonatal edition) through to adolescence. The Education and Practice edition (established in 2004) aims to assist paediatricians, at all levels in their training, in their ongoing professional development.
ADC includes original research reports, commentaries, reviews of clinical and policy issues, and evidence reports. Areas covered include: community child health, public health, epidemiology, acute paediatrics, advocacy, and ethics.
