Springer has broad Institutional Open Access Agreements with many institutions and countries. Covered countries and institutions now include the following: the University of California, Austria, Australia and New Zealand, Carnegie Mellon, MIT, Columbia, Canada, Sweden, Hungary, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Egypt, Finland, Portugal, Poland, South Africa, Netherlands, Qatar, Spain, Norway, Switzerland and the UK. Thus, if published in JNO, your work originating from one of these institutions qualifies for open-access publication with any open-access fees covered by the publisher’s agreement. This is distinctly different from other journals in this space. Please see the following link for more details. Open access allows your JNO publication to be more easily accessed by clinicians and researchers thereby enhancing its visibility.
New JNO special collections are currently under for 2023 including one by Dr. Cifarelli and Dr. Lee. Other JNO special collections are planned for later this year including one on pituitary adenomas led by Dr. Gab Zada and another by Dr. Germano and Dr. Cifarelli. Submissions for these special collections are being sought.
Drs. Mehta and Shepard continue to lead the JNO Social Media channels. Be sure to follow JNO’s social media on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for the latest updates. Also, Dr. D’Amico continues the very popular JNO webinar series featured on YouTube and Cassyni with DOI’s assigned for each Tumor Talk. DOI’s assigned by Cassyni represent permanent access to each Tumor Talk and can be accessed and shared with interested readers and the research community. DOI’s are also easily citable for each Tumor Talk contributor.
Also, JNO has now introduced visual abstracts to submissions. These can also be deployed on social media channels to raise awareness of the works published in JNO.
