Gold open access processing fee does not affect LMIC authors
An article processing fee of $1200 will only be required where the corresponding author of an article accepted for publication is from a high-income country. An article processing fee will not be required for articles where the corresponding author is from a low- or a middle-income country. Call for papers: Systematic reviews
Given the severe shortage in African emergency care data, AfJEM invites researchers to submit systematic reviews particularly targetting clinical emergency management of locally relevant conditions, resource availability and emergency services flow as it pertains to emergency medicine, nursing and out-of-hospital care. If you wish, do contact the editor to discuss an idea for a systematic review or submit your contribution directly |
