As mentioned previously ANC shares a scope with its sister journal Acta Neuropathalogia, so many of you will be asking what’s the difference between the two journals? In a nutshell, ANC is an open access journal aiming at ultrafast online publication following submission and does not ask for major revisions. ANC will not compromise on the quality of articles published within the journal, as you can see by looking at the first articles published.
In addition to direct submissions to ANC, manuscripts originally reviewed for Acta Neuropathologica can be transferred to ANC, should the authors request it. To make this easy for authors we are currently creating a tool which will transfer all the manuscript files to the new journal on the authors’ behalf, meaning that authors will not need to spend time reformatting and re-uploading files onto a new submission system. We expect this to be operational later this year.
All the editors of ANC and the publishing team from BioMed Central are doing their best to provide excellent service and to publish the most interesting papers. Try it out! We greatly appreciate any feedback that you may have.
