International Neurourology Journal: Get Ready for the Readers' Quest
Article information
Solving the mystery of the bladder involves both basic and clinical research, much of it utilizing rapidly advancing modern technologies and theories. The best form of clinical research is always built upon a solid foundation of cutting-edge basic research; our journal aims to apply knowledge and discovery gained from the basic science to medical practice in a timely and efficient way.
Our journal accepts basic researches not only in urology but also from immunology, rheumatology, cardiology, and other fields that can help solve the mystery of the bladder. Basic science across a wide range of clinical fields have a tendency toward compartmentalization, resulting in limited or delayed access for clinicians to potentially translatable watershed developments in science and technology. Thus, we welcome valuable basic research articles outside the scope of urology, thereby introducing the result to urology as soon as possible. In the editorials, urologists will present their perspectives on these articles [1,2].
Recently, the International Neurourology Journal was selected for coverage in the Thomson Reuters products: Science Citation Index Expanded, online at the Web of Science. Our journal will be processed electronically for the coverage, starting from the first issue of volume 16, 2012.
We are ready to foster the solutions to unraveling the secrets of the bladder, tailored to the new format of translational research, based on the effective and unbiased international communication.
