Editor Resources
Tools, templates, and guidance for JNRT editors managing neurology and neuroscience manuscripts.
Support for Editorial Excellence
JNRT provides comprehensive resources to support editors in their manuscript evaluation responsibilities. These materials help editors maintain consistent standards, communicate effectively with authors and reviewers, and contribute to efficient editorial workflows. Our goal is to make editorial service rewarding and manageable alongside primary neurology research and teaching responsibilities.
JNRT uses ManuscriptZone for editorial workflow management. The system provides tools for manuscript tracking, reviewer invitation, decision recording, and author communication. Editors receive training on system features and have access to technical support.
