Dear Readers,

We have the pleasure to inform you that the Palestrica of the Third Millennium – Civilization and Sport journal, founded in 2000 as a journal of medicine applied to sport, civilization, health and medical rehabilitation, will change its name to Health, Sports & Rehabilitation Medicine, starting with issue 1/2019.

The name was changed at the suggestion of prestigious international databases in which the journal is indexed, considering that the term Palestrica, derived from palestrae – cultural, scientific and sports amphitheaters in ancient Greece, is relatively little known. The new name is aimed at adapting the profile of the journal to scientific contemporaneity in the field of medical and pharmaceutical sciences and interdisciplinary integration with health, physical activity and biopsychosocial rehabilitation.

The change of the title will allow an increased visibility of the journal, with a view to its inclusion in the ISI Thomson Reuters database.

The journal will have the same contents: editorials, original articles, review articles, case reports, recent publications, events.

The journal is open for publication to all members of the national and international scientific community and offers the possibility to promote young people involved in research, along with top researchers in the above mentioned fields.

Keywords: Palestrica of the Third Millennium – Civilization and Sport journal, change its name Health, Sports & Rehabilitation Medicine
