Nordic Journal of Music Therapy NJMT is published in collaboration with GAMUT - The Grieg Academy Music Therapy Research Centre (Uni Health and University of Bergen), with financial support from Nordic Board for Periodicals in the Humanities and Social Sciences and in co-operation with university programs and organizations of music therapy in the Nordic and Baltic countries.The Nordic Journal of Music Therapy serves the international community of music therapy by being an avenue for publication of scholarly articles, texts on practice, theory and research, dialogues and discussions, reviews and critique. Publication of the journal is based on the collaboration between the music therapy communities in the five Nordic countries of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden and the three Baltic Countries of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. This international but still regional foundation offers a platform for development of communication with the broader international community of music therapy. Scholars from all over the world are welcomed to write in the journal. Any kind of scholarly articles related to the field of music therapy are welcomed. All articles are reviewed by two referees and by the editors, to ensure the quality of the journal. Since the field of music therapy is still young, we work hard to make the review process a constructive learning experience for the author. The Nordic Journal of Music Therapy does not step aside from active engagement in the development of the discipline, in order to stimulate multicultural, meta-theoretical and philosophical discussions, and new and diverse forms of inquiry. The journal also stimulates reflections on music as the medium that defines the discipline. Perspectives inspired by musicology and ethnomusicology are therefore welcomed. In addition to scholarly articles we will look for other ways of facilitating the music therapy discourse, and we put effort into presenting interviews and dialogues that can stimulate this, as well as reviews of important books in the field.

All areas within psychiatry are represented: Child and adult psychiatry, psychotherapy, pharmacotherapy, social psychiatry, psychosomatic medicine. All articles are published in English and are reviewed by referees, with a single-blind routine (i.e. authors will not know the identity of the reviwers, but the reviewers will see the name of the author.Read More: http://informahealthcare.com/page/psc/Description.

The interdisciplinary journal Notfall + Rettungsmedizin is intended to meet the needs of emergency physicians (both experienced professionals and those in training), emergency medical staff, and all members of trauma teams. It places special emphasis on preclinical and clinical emergency medicine, quality management and research into emergency medical treatments. Unsolicited original articles present important clinical studies aimed at promoting scientific exchange of knowledge. For randomised controlled trials submitted for publication in Notfall + Rettungsmedizin the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) are recommended. Comprehensive reviews describe the most recent advances in the field of emergency medicine. Review articles under the rubric 'Continuing Medical Education' present the verified results of scientific research and their integration into daily practice.

Nuclear Medicine Communications is a monthly rapid communications journal publishing research and clinical work in all areas of nuclear medicine for a global readership. In addition to original research papers, the journal features frankly written editorials, comprehensive reviews of current practice, and technical notes.

Nuclear Medicine and Biology publishes original research addressing all aspects of radiopharmaceutical science: synthesis, in vitro and ex vivo studies, in vivo biodistribution by dissection or imaging, radiopharmacology, radiopharmacy, and translational clinical studies of targeted radiotracers. The importance of the target to a key disease should be the first consideration. If the synthesis of a new radiopharmaceutical is submitted without in vitro or in vivo data, then the uniqueness of the chemistry must be emphasized.These multidisciplinary studies should validate the mechanism of localization whether the probe is based on binding to a receptor, enzyme, tumor antigen, or another well-defined target. The studies should be aimed at evaluating how the chemical and radiopharmaceutical properties affect pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, or therapeutic efficacy. Ideally, the study would address the sensitivity of the probe to changes in disease or treatment, although studies validating mechanism alone are acceptable. Radiopharmacy practice, addressing the issues of preparation, automation, quality control, dispensing, and regulations applicable to qualification and administration of radiopharmaceuticals to humans, is an important aspect of the developmental process, but only if the study has a significant impact on the field.Contributions on the subject of therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals also are appropriate provided that the specificity of labeled compound localization and therapeutic effect have been addressed. Supplemental information on the Aims and Scope can be found in the Jan issue of the Journal and at www.nucmedbio.com.

Nurse Education in Practice enables lecturers and practitioners to both share and disseminate evidence that demonstrates the actual practice of education as it is experienced in the realities of their respective work environments, that is both in the University/faculty and clinical settings. It is supportive of new authors and is at the forefront in publishing individual and collaborative papers that demonstrate the link between education and practice.Nursing is a discipline that is grounded in its practice origins - nurse educators utilise research-based evidence to promote good practice in education in all its fields. A strength of this journal is that it seeks to promote the development of a body of evidence to underpin the foundation of nurse education practice, as well as promoting and publishing education focused papers from other health care professions which have the same underpinning philosophy.Case studies and innovative developments that demonstrate how nursing and health care educators teach and facilitate learning, together with reflection and action that seeks to transform their professional practice will be promoted.The opportunity to stimulate debate is encouraged as is the promotion of evidence-based nursing education internationally.New sections:Learning and teaching in practicePapers which focus on nursing education in the clinical/practice environment, from clinical staff involved in the education of student nurses in practice, as well as educators involved in the development of the workforce through post-qualifying education and training initiatives, are welcomed. It is essential that, as in other areas of nursing education, the evidence-base to education in the clinical environment is developed, where student nurses learn to become nurses; and professional caring practitioners develop and maintain their own knowledge and skills in order to transform the way they develop and deliver quality care to their patients and clients. One field that this is especially visible is known as Practice Development.Midwifery EducationIn keeping with the overall aims and scope of the journal Nurse Education in Practice (NEP), the midwifery section focuses upon education at an international level. The editorial team wish to encourage submission of papers that relate to midwifery which demonstrate:• Innovation and development of education;• Creativity in teaching and learning strategies;• Advancement of practice-based education;• Collaborative education initiatives between women and midwives;• Delivery of education within the maternity services.Submit your paper online at http://ees.elsevier.com/nep.
