Submit to a Special Issue
Contribute your neurology and neuroscience research to focused special issue collections in JNRT.
Join a Focused Research Collection
JNRT special issues bring together related research on timely topics in neurology, neuroscience, and neurological therapeutics. By submitting to a special issue, your work appears alongside related neurological research, increasing visibility and facilitating discovery by readers interested in your specific research area. Special issue articles receive the same rigorous peer review as regular submissions while benefiting from thematic grouping and targeted promotion to the neurology community.
Each special issue is organized by expert Guest Editors with established expertise in neurology who provide guidance on scope and relevance. Submitting to a special issue connects your work with a curated collection addressing important questions in neurological sciences, enhancing impact through association with complementary research.
Authors submitting to JNRT special issues enjoy several advantages compared to regular submissions while maintaining the same quality standards and publication services.
Enhanced Visibility
Special issues receive dedicated promotion through social media, email announcements, and targeted marketing to neurologists and neuroscientists in the specific topic area. Your article benefits from this focused promotion reaching readers specifically interested in your neurological research.
Thematic Context
Your research appears alongside related neurology work, providing context that helps readers understand your contribution within the broader neurological research landscape. This thematic grouping facilitates discovery and citation by researchers working on similar neurological questions.
Expert Editorial Guidance
Guest Editors with expertise in your neurological research area guide the peer review process. Their specialized knowledge of neurology ensures reviewers understand the nuances of your work and provide constructive feedback relevant to your specific area.
Submitting to a JNRT special issue follows the same process as regular submissions with a few additional steps to ensure your manuscript is directed to the appropriate special issue collection.
- Check the ongoing special issues page to find collections matching your neurological research topic
- Review the special issue description and submission deadline carefully
- Prepare your manuscript following standard JNRT author guidelines
- Submit through ManuscriptZone and select the appropriate special issue from the dropdown menu
- Include a cover letter indicating why your neurology work fits the special issue scope
Important Deadlines
Each special issue has specific submission deadlines established by the Guest Editors. Check the ongoing special issues page for current deadline information. Early submission is encouraged as special issues may reach capacity before the deadline. Late neurology submissions may be considered for regular issue publication.
Special issue submissions undergo the same rigorous peer review as all JNRT manuscripts by qualified neurologists and neuroscientists. The Guest Editor coordinates reviewer selection with input from the JNRT editorial team. Standard article processing charges apply to accepted manuscripts, and member discounts remain available for special issue submissions.
For questions about specific special issues, contact the Guest Editors listed on the special issue page. For general questions about special issue submissions, contact the JNRT editorial office at [email protected].
