INTRODUCTION | |||||||
Dear Colleague, Greetings ! As you are all aware neonatal specialty is fast growing in India. Most larger hospitals are having decent nursery and have infrastructure for at-least few level 3 NICU beds. Dedicated pediatric or mother and child hospitals do even better. In govt sector also huge impetus is on improving neonatal care. More fellowship and DM programs are available across the country. Workup of most newborns in these centers is by and large complete. Hence there is apt opportunity for good research work. However, good reports and studies are often lost to bigger pediatric journals or International Publications. Neonatal specialty Journals from our own country, barring one from our national society, are hardly known. There is enough publishable research work which lies unreported. A fact assessed from the large number of posters submitted in National Conference and relatively few translated into actual publications. It had always been my ambition to do something in this regard. however logistics prevented me from acting earlier. Now I have finally decided to go ahead. It gives me immense pleasure to announce the starting of New Publication from India to cater to the needs of Neonatal specialty. Indian Journal of Neonatal Medicine and Research. (ISSN : 2277-8527) (www.ijnmr.net). 1. Every 3 months 2. Both Online and Print 3. Strictly Peer reviewed 4. Own Manuscript Submission Portal (http://prepublishing. ijnmr.net/). 5. Early Online Ahead of Print facility. 6. Own fixed Editorial office and Staff. This journal is after my experience with our flagship publication: Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research: JCDR (www.jcdr.net) which has been recently accredited and accepted for indexing in Pubmed Central (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/journals/). Since its inception in 2007, JCDR has received wide support from all over country and abroad. It has published around 1600 peer reviewed articles covering most clinical and non clinical specialties. Earlier in June 2011 journal ushered in print, in addition to being online free access. Seeing its wide support Journal is now published monthly instead of once in two months. Last year (2011). Impact Factor for journal was: 0.14. It has National and International Editorial Members who guide in transparent, time-line bound Peer review system and are Independent of any organization or society or pharmacy. Proposal for Name of Faculty who will like to join in Editorial and spare time for the journal are welcome. I invite you to submit your clinical experiences, original articles, case reports, reviews, images in medicine etc to the new Neonatal Journal. It is the support from the neonatal specialists community that will make this journal a success. Articles can be submitted on the following website. http://prepublishing.ijnmr.net/ | |||||||
