| On the Cover | We at EHP traditionally recognize Earth Day with an image of the titular planet on our April cover. With this issue, which marks our fifteenth anniversary as a peer-reviewed research and news journal (although the journal was founded in 1972 as a publication for conference proceedings), we cast our view skyward to see what health benefits the sun can offer us on the tiny blue planet here below.
