Abstract
Public health research makes an important contribution to Europe and its citizens. The collaborative study SPHERE (Strengthening Public Health Research in Europe) was developed in response to a call from the European Commission's Sixth Framework Research Programme. It includes 19 partners in 12 countries, structured around the European Public Health Association and led by the UK Faculty of Public Health. This article provides an overview to a Supplement to the European Journal of Public Health, including eight original papers making bibliometric studies on public health literatures, and two commentaries from European experts. European public health publications are similar in number to the US, if a range of databases are consulted. The majority are published in English and tend to be descriptive rather than evaluative. The integration of Europe as a political, social and economic unity will strengthen public health collaboration and funding across borders in Europe.
