Manuscript Sharing
ESC Journal Family Manuscript sharing
Oxford Journals and the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) have announced a new facility of manuscript sharing amongst all seven of the ESC journals. Authors submitting to the flagship journal European Heart Journal (EHJ), will where appropriate, be given the option for their manuscript to be considered by the relevant sub-specialty journal when EHJ is unable to accept their manuscript for publication.
Once authors agree for their manuscript to be shared within the ESC Journal Family, there will be no need for re-submission and any reviewer comments will also be shared, resulting in a reduced time to a decision.
In addition to EHJ there are six further journals in the family, which have associated impact factors* and are the leading European journals in their fields, these are:
Cardiovascular Research
EP-Europace
The European Journal of Echocardiography
The European Journal of Heart Failure
The European Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing
The European Journal of Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation
* European Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing is due to receive its first impact factor in 2011.
