As Editor-in-Chief of the journal Quality of Life, I look forward to the challenge of creating a

journal that will enhance the quality of research in the various disciplines encompassing the Science

and technology of food, Public health engineering, Sanitary inspection and control, Environmental

and public health in our country, the region as well as at the international level. The journal Quality

of Life was registered in the Register of Public Media in 2010 by the Decision of the RS Ministry of

Education and Culture. Over the past years, this journal has published a large number of original scientific research papers, communications and review papers. Quality of Life is published twice a year

by Pan-European University “Apeiron” Banja Luka. All the papers published so far have undergone a

thorough review by the editorial board and the reviewers, made up of experts from both RS/B&H, the

surrounding and other countries, from proven and recognized university and research institutions.

As a result of a professional approach to selecting and reviewing papers, and raising the quality of

the journal, Quality of Life was classified in the first category of journals in 2019 by the Ministry of

Education and Culture.

We are proud to say that Quality of Life has been well received by the scientific and the general

public in a relatively short period, which gives the editorial board a strong motivation for further

work. The editorial team would like to thank our many reviewers who helped to maintain the journal

standard; our many authors who submitted their best work to the journal; and, most importantly,

our readers for your continuing support. I shall assure all our readers that our consistent efforts will

be aimed toward increasing the visibility, impact, editorial cycle time, citations and overall quality of

our journals. We very much look forward to strengthening the reputation of our publications, and we

want to attract more higher-quality submissions.

In the spirit of continuous improvement, any constructive input on streamlining our processes

is very welcome. Please help us grow by citing articles that you read in Quality of Life. We look

forward to receiving your contributions in the near future.
