Journal Guide

Research in Nursing & Health ( RINAH ) is a general, peer-reviewed, research journal devoted to publication of a wide range of research and theory that will inform the practice of nursing and other health disciplines. The editors invite research reports on nursing practice, education, administration, and history; on health issues relevant to nursing; and on the testing of research findings in practice. Papers on research methods and techniques are appropriate if they go beyond what is already generally available in the literature. Theory papers are accepted if knowledge is advanced; preference is given to papers in which theory is developed, rather than simply reviewed. Integrative reviews of the literature are accepted if gaps in knowledge are identified and directions for future research provided. Critical reviews of new books and other publications on research and theory may be included. Letters to the editor commenting on published articles or research and theory issues are welcome.

EJNMMI Research is a peer-reviewed open access journal published under the brand SpringerOpen. It focuses on new basic, translational and clinical research in the field of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging.Regular features include original research articles, rapid communications on preliminary novel research, interesting case reports, editorials, and letters to the editor. Timely reviews provide updates on current applications, issues in imaging research and translational aspects of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging technologies.

Logistics Research is an academic, double-blind, peer-reviewed journal, publishing research from an interdisciplinary perspective in logistics management and engineering. Logistics Research solicits and publishes work advancing the development of logistics theory, methods and innovative logistics practices as well as the integration of the various associated disciplines such as management and social sciences, economics, behavioral sciences, operations research, informatics, and other relevant engineering sciences.

Chemical Biology is a novel interdisciplinary subject that is still evolving. Interpreting chemical biology as widely as possible, the 'Journal of Chemical Biology' (JOCB) will be open towards the whole spectrum of physical sciences research if it is applied to foster biomedical research. This will include innovative theoretical and experimental approaches and tools being applied to elucidate biological problems. Chemical Biology is not a synonym for Biological chemistry/Biochemistry, the latter being served by a plethora of life sciences journals, where well-established tools and techniques drawn from the physical sciences are employed to produce innovative biological research. The main acceptance criteria are therefore: the novelty/innovation in the physical sciences part of the presented interdisciplinary research and/or its application in biological research. Manuscripts are expected to convey their research in a fashion that allows both research communities to appreciate its significance and achievements. Thus, experts drawn from the life as well as the physical sciences background referee all manuscripts. The journal is keen to attract articles on novel innovations and discoveries in the physical sciences that can be applied in the cellular environment (in vivo). Important discoveries that have not yet reached the necessary proof for their biological relevance will be presented as short communications. Reviews and opinion papers as well as articles and short communications that present original multidisciplinary research with a clear applicability towards the life sciences are welcome. JOCB also invites to submit these research advances of interesting tools and technology developmentsthat are not yet applicable towards biological problems as 'notes'. Being an interdisciplinary journal we would like to encourage reviews on interdisciplinary subjects from authors affiliated with both disciplines as well as investigators affiliated in one disc, ipline with the desire to become engaged in this new interdisciplinary research area. The 'Journal of Chemical Biology' endeavors to create a platform for multidisciplinary physical scientists to publish their achievements, retrieve information, and exchange ideas, opinions and thoughts with the biomedical research community. The latter is addressed in the 'Journal of Chemical Biology Bulletin', which is published with each issue and will contain information that is relevant for the chemical biology research community. This includes book reviews, meeting reports and announcements as well as information on chemical biology studies and education. Color figures free of charge: All color figures will be published in print as well as electronic form free of charge.

Aims: Kotuitui aims to showcase the increasing number of collaborative research endeavours across the social sciences. Although of particular relevance to New Zealand, the journal's subject matter is of worldwide relevance and interest to researchers in universities, research institutes, and other centres. The Maori name 8216;Kotuitui' means 8216;interweaving', and reflects the interdisciplinary nature of the journal. Scope of submissions: Kotuitui publishes original research papers, short communications, book reviews, and letters. We welcome submissions from across all social science disciplines. Although the journal will predominately highlight research in the New Zealand context, international submissions are welcome. The journal's subject matter includes contributions from long-established fields (including psychology, economics, human geography, sociology, education, political science, anthropology, social work, population studies, and history); as well as more recent disciplinary and inter-disciplinary fields such as public policy, development studies, conflict resolution, gender studies, international relations, security studies, human rights, cultural and ethnic studies, ethics, criminology, health, sustainability, communications, and media studies.Authors are invited to submit research papers from all social science disciplines for consideration. Papers should be of high quality that can be expected to attract citations from other researchers, both international and domestic. As well as excellent disciplinary research, we welcome:papers connecting social science research to other disciplines multi- and trans-disciplinary research links between research and public policy research into national and international trends and issues relevant to New Zealand. The journal will be freely available online, facilitating the distribution of New Zealand social science knowledge both nationally and internationally. Papers with likely high impact will be fast-tracked for rapid publication.Although the journal will predominately highlight research in the New Zealand context, international work is welcome. All papers must be the original work of the author(s), and not under consideration by any other publisher.The journal aims to showcase the increasing number of collaborative research endeavours across the social sciences and become an outlet that will capture lively, empirically based outputs from New Zealand researchers. No page charges for publicationAll papers are Open Access Electronic issues are published biannually Online ISSN: 1177-083X.

Discover Networks is a fully open access, peer-reviewed journal that supports multidisciplinary research and policy developments across the field of network science. The journal aims to be a resource for researchers, policy makers and the general public for recent advances in network science, and its uses in research development and society. As a fully open access journal, we ensure that our research is highly discoverable and instantly available globally to everyone. The journal particularly welcomes work that aims to address the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, especially Sustainable Cities and Communities; Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure; and Good Health and Well-Being. 

Journal of Sports Economics (JSE), peer-reviewed and published quarterly, publishes scholarly research in the field of sports economics.
