To summarize current research in the field of Public Health and Epidemiology Informatics. : The complete 2016 literature concerning public health and epidemiology informatics has been searched in PubMed and Web of Science, and the returned references were reviewed by the two section editors to select 14 candidate best papers. These papers were then peer-reviewed by external reviewers to allow the editorial team an enlightened selection of the best papers. : Among the 829 references retrieved from PubMed and Web of Science, three were finally selected as best papers. The first one compares Google, Twitter, and Wikipedia as tools for Influenza surveillance. The second paper presents a Geographic Knowledge-Based Model for mapping suitable areas for Rift Valley fever transmission in Eastern Africa. The last paper evaluates the factors associated with the visit of Facebook pages devoted to Public Health Communication. Surveillance is still a productive topic in public health informatics but other very important topics in public health are appearing.
在PubMed和科学网中检索了2016年有关公共卫生与流行病学信息学的全部文献，两位栏目编辑对检索到的参考文献进行了评审，选出14篇候选最佳论文。然后由外部评审人员对这些论文进行同行评审，以便编辑团队明智地选出最佳论文。：从PubMed和科学网检索到的829篇参考文献中，最终选出3篇作为最佳论文。第一篇比较了谷歌、推特和维基百科作为流感监测工具的情况。第二篇论文提出了一种基于地理知识的模型，用于绘制东非裂谷热传播适宜区域的地图。最后一篇论文评估了与访问公共卫生传播相关脸书页面有关的因素。监测在公共卫生信息学中仍然是一个富有成效的主题，但公共卫生领域的其他非常重要的主题也正在出现。
