Focused primarily on African music research, Muziki: Journal of Music Research in Africa welcomes scholarly articles and reviews of books, music, and recordings related to musical theory and practice of the African continent and beyond. We aim to provide a platform for established and emerging scholars in the fields of performance practice, ethnomusicology, and ‘traditional’ musicology as well as jazz and popular music studies encompassing diverse aspects of local, diasporic, and global research.

Muziki succeeded the long-established Ars Nova journal of the Musicology Department at the University of South Africa in 2004. The journal is accredited by the South African Department of Higher Education and Training and employs a rigorous double-blind peer review process for all submissions.

Contemporary Music Review is a contemporary musicians' journal. It provides a forum where new tendencies in music can be discussed in both breadth and depth. Each issue focuses on a specific topic. The main concern of the journal is music today in all its aspects--its techniques of performance and composition, aesthetics, technology and its relationship with other disciplines and currents of thought. The publication may also serve as a vehicle to communicate actual musical materials.

Aims and Scope:
Transplantation Proceedings publishes several different categories of manuscripts, all of which undergo extensive peer review by recognized authorities in the field prior to their acceptance for publication.

The first type of manuscripts consists of sets of papers providing an in-depth expression of the current state of the art in various rapidly developing components of world transplantation biology and medicine. These manuscripts emanate from congresses of the affiliated transplantation societies, from Symposia sponsored by the Societies, as well as special Conferences and Workshops covering related topics.

Transplantation Proceedings also publishes several special sections including publication of Clinical Transplantation Proceedings, being rapid original contributions of preclinical and clinical experiences. These manuscripts undergo review by members of the http://www.journals.elsevier.com/transplantation-proceedings/editorial-board/Editorial Board.
