Editorial Note

As our readers know, Journal of Neurological Disorders is the most preferred and highly accessed Journal in the field of Neurological Disorders. The Journal is indexed in Index Copernicus, Open J Gate, Academic Keys among many other reputed scientific databases. At many instances members of the editorial board also prefer to submit their articles. Such practice is common in other reputed specialty Journals. In fact, JND encourages editorial board members to actively contribute. However, no special privileges are given to anyone. All scientific manuscripts including editorials are subjected to peer review. We ensure that the peer-review process is fair, unbiased (single blind review system-where reviewer recognizes author but author does not recognize reviewer) and timely. We express our sincere gratitude to all our reviewers for their long standing support, their effort and time in evaluating the manuscripts. The peer-review process converts the preliminary manuscript submission into a citable standard publication. It improves the scientific merit and presentation quality for better comprehension by wide range of readers. The editorial team consisting of associate editors and assistant editors are involved in the entire article cycle starting from submission to final recommendation. The entire review process is carefully structured so as to minimize possibility of bias. The process of review and recommendations are confidential since the unpublished manuscripts are classified in nature. Review needs to focus mainly on improving the scientific merit of the manuscript and needs to be very objective in nature.

We are publishing this note in the interest of transparency and publication ethics in accordance with the Journal.

JND considers only the original research work that has neither been published elsewhere, nor under process of reviewing for publication. JND deploys authenticated software tool to detect similar and overlapping of information in the submitted documents. Information that is found to have been plagiarized from the manuscripts of other authors would be summarily rejected, involving thorough changes as suggested by the reviewers.
