Dear Friends and Colleagues,
To date very few Journals are available to accept video articles for submission/publication in the field of medicinal plants, despite this type of articles could have a paramount importance in order to share new techniques and approaches.
For this reason, I decided to open a Collection titled “Challenging herbal drugs complexity” on the Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE):
https://www.jove.com/methods-collections/255/challenging-herbal-drugs-complexity
This collection aims to focus on innovative technologies and methods used to study herbal substances and preparations in order to elucidate chemical and biological interactions among different compounds within a phytocomplex.
The most recent Impact Factor for JoVE (ISSN 1940-087X) is 1.184, according to the 2017 Journal Citation Reports released by Clarivate Analytics in 2018, and the Journal is currently indexed in the major databases, including PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus and Web of Science.
After submission, each manuscript will be editorially and peer reviewed, which is typically a 1-2 month process. Once a text article passes review, a script will be generated. Generally, a filming date will be scheduled within 4-8 weeks after acceptance. A videographer will be sent to the authors’ site to film the procedure.
If you are interested, either message me or submit an abstract here:
