The American Heart Association, in collaboration with the Society of Vascular and Interventional Neurology and John Wiley & Sons, announced the launch of a new open-access journal, Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology.
According to a press release, the new journal will focus on topics in interventional, endovascular, medical and surgical management of stroke and vascular disease of the brain, spinal cord, and head and neck.
The new journal is expected to start accepting papers and publishing in early 2021.
Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology will be produced bimonthly and available online-only. All papers will be open access.
The AHA also issued a call for an editor-in-chief of the new journal.
“We are proud to unite with the Society of Vascular and Interventional Neurology to launch this new journal, Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, in 2021,” Mitchell S.V. Elkind, MD, MS, FAAN, FAHA, professor of neurology and epidemiology at Columbia University’s Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, chief of the division of neurology clinical outcomes research and population sciences in the department of neurology at Columbia University in New York City and president of the AHA, said in the release. “The field of vascular and interventional neurology is growing rapidly, we are learning more every day about the incredible complexities of the cerebrovascular system — new techniques to diagnose and treat while improving outcomes, quality of life and length of life. It is critical that we empower and inform clinicians and researchers with this invaluable journal — so they are able to improve patient care and outcomes. Patients are relying on us to help them live longer and healthier lives.”
