Le Bulletin de la Société de pathologie exotique (Bull. Soc. Pathol. Exot.) et la société savante (SPE) dont il est la vitrine ont été créés en 1908 par Alphonse Laveran, lauréat du prix Nobel de médecine l'année précédente pour ses travaux sur les protozoaires et la découverte de l’agent du paludisme. Destiné, dans un premier temps, à servir de support à la publication des travaux des sociétaires présentés en séance sous forme de communication ou de mémoire, ce périodique est devenu, au fil du temps, une revue internationale francophone multidisciplinaire, ouverte à tous les médecins, vétérinaires, anthropologues et chercheurs travaillant dans le domaine de la médecine tropicale humaine et animale et de la santé publique dans les pays en voie de développement. Le Bulletin de la SPE leur offre la possibilité de faire connaître leurs travaux sous forme d'articles ou de courtes notes, après acceptation par un comité de rédaction rigoureux appuyé par un comité de lecture constitué de spécialistes reconnus sur le plan international. L'intégralité des analyses et des critiques des lecteurs étant renvoyée aux auteurs, le bulletin joue également un rôle dans la formation universitaire et post-universitaire. Lorsque les auteurs de l'article ne sont pas francophones, les textes en anglais sont acceptés. Le Bulletin de la SPE (5 numéros par an), organe de liaison des professionnels de santé tropicale francophones, publie régulièrement, sous forme de résumés, les communications présentées aux réunions décentralisées de la SPE et à celles d'autres sociétés savantes, nationales et internationales impliquées dans la recherche en médecine tropicale. Les rubriques proposées vont de la virologie à l’anthropologie médicale en passant, entre autres, par la bactériologie, la mycologie, la parasitologie, la clinique, l'épidémiologie, la santé publique, la thérapeutique, l'entomologie, médicale… Dix-huit mois après leur parution, tous les articles sont accessibles gratuitement sur le site Internet de la SPE.

The Bulletin of the World Health Organization is published monthly in English, with French and Spanish summaries for each article by the World Health Organization (WHO). Established for more than 50 years as a leading research journal, the Bulletin of the World Health Organization was expanded in 1999. In line with sweeping changes preparing WHO for the new century, the Bulletin quickened its pace of publication and extended its editorial scope. Contributions from the social and behavioural sciences added to extend the journal's traditional coverage of biomedical and scientific research. Support from a prestigious Editorial Board, as well as from an extensive group of reviewers, has raised the standards of manuscript appraisal and acceptance even higher. By placing research findings and policy-relevant discussions side by side, the Bulletin aims to stimulate debate on public health policy and practice based on the best evidence available, while also encouraging closer links between scientific investigation and the challenge of helping populations to lead healthier lives. In selecting articles for publication, the editors continue to give priority to original findings that advance understanding of health problems - and ways to solve them - in a world where health concerns every country, and diseases respect no boundaries. Its abbreviated title, Bull World Health Organ, should be used in bibliographies, footnotes and bibliographical references and strips.

Burnout has been an important social issue for many years, with an increasing number of people from various disciplines doing research to understand the phenomenon and to suggest solutions for the problems that burnout poses. This research is being carried out in many countries around the world, so it is clear that burnout has global significance. Recently, there has been a growing interest in developing interventions to reduce burnout, from government agencies and organizations in both the public and private sectors. Without a doubt, burnout poses a major challenge for society. Given the ongoing importance of the burnout phenomenon, and the rising interest in making real progress in alleviating it, there is a need for a primary venue for the many research contributions being made.

Burnout Research is a peer-reviewed international journal aimed at presenting basic, translational and clinical high-quality research related to the phenomenon of burnout. As the first journal dedicated to understanding the causes and consequences of burnout, and potential solutions to the problem, Burnout Research welcomes original research articles, review articles, case reports, and opinion pieces. The goal of the journal is to publish the top research in three major areas:

• Cutting-edge research that lays out new directions for the burnout field, including new research paradigms and measures, new theoretical models, and new collaborations between researchers and practitioners. For example:
  • Multiple levels of analysis from the individual to the dyadic, the family, the organization, and society as a whole in explaining burnout.
  • The dynamic nature of burnout experiences within persons over time.
• Critical reviews that provide comprehensive and integrative analyses of key themes. For example:
  • Cultural, national, or occupational differences in burnout.
  • Meta-analyses of major datasets.
• Translational research studies that assess promising interventions for preventing burnout and building work engagement. For example:
  • Psychosocial resources to prevent burnout and promote positive personal outcomes.
  • Evaluation of the effectiveness of intervention strategies to ameliorate burnout at either the personal, social, and organizational levels.

Special issues of Burnout Research may be devoted to themes of particular interest Our first special issue focused on http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/22130586/1/2Burnout in health care (2014). We would be interested in such themes as burnout interventions, or global comparisons of burnout in different countries, or burnout in technology workplaces.

Keywords: burnout, job stress, work engagement, psychosocial factors, health outcomes, work behaviors, job performance, job satisfaction, job-person fit, organizational factors.
