Annual Review Issue 2024 - Call for Proposals
Deadline for nominations: November 30th, 2023
The Editors-in-Chief of Pediatric Research announce the topic of the 2024 Annual Review Issue, entitled "The Importance of the Everyday."
There are a few things that occur in caring for children which are so commonplace that we tend to overlook them. But the underlying scientific principles of these practices have not really been scrutinized. In this review issue of Pediatric Research, we will be looking at these everyday practices, what their underlying principles are and if they are in the patient's best interest or not. These practices can occur in the NICU, PICU, Emergency Department and in the hospital as a whole. Some examples of these practices are the excipients we use in our medications, the sound environment in which our patients are cared for, integrative medicine practices, and the greening of our hospitals.
This is an excellent opportunity for junior faculty to pair up with senior mentors to develop these reviews! Please note that standard publication page fees are waived for manuscripts included in the Annual Review Issue!
Letters of intent should include a proposed title and be sent to info@pedres.org by the deadline. Please include "ARI 2024 Proposal" in the subject line. If proposal is accepted, initial manuscript drafts will be due January 15th, 2024.
