Cureus August 2020 Newsletter

August 13, 2020 | Newsletter
JOURNAL OF MEDICAL SCIENCE NEWSLETTER | AUGUST 2020

Hi,

Welcome to another installment of our monthly update to all registered Cureus users.

Thanks in advance for your patience and support as Cureus continues its unprecedented growth - we're on pace to publish over 5,000 articles this year alone! We are continuing to expand our editorial team to handle all of your submissions. At the moment, articles submitted to editor approval (after peer review) are taking a bit longer than we would like, but trust us when we say we're working on it!

Our team is hard at work streamlining our editorial process to ensure articles are peer-reviewed and published even faster - stay tuned for more info next month!

Competition winners announced!
The Clinical Applications and Benefits Using Closed-Incision Negative Pressure Therapy (ciNPT) for Incision and Surrounding Soft Tissue Management publishing competition has come to a close and we are pleased to announce the winning articles based on highest Cureus SIQ score*!

  • 1st place - $5,000 honorarium (9.03 SIQ): Clinical Experiences with Closed Incisional Negative Pressure Wound Treatment on Various Anatomic Locations
  • 2nd place - $2,000 honorarium (8.78 SIQ): Closed Incision Negative Pressure Therapy Achieves Better Outcome Than Standard Wound Care: Clinical Outcome and Cost-Effectiveness Analysis in Open Ventral Hernia Repair With Synthetic Mesh Positioning
  • 3rd place - $1,000 honorarium (8.58 SIQ): Closure of a Complex Lower Extremity Wound With the Use of Multiple Negative Pressure Therapy Modalities

We'd like to thank the Cureus community and our sponsor, KCI, for making this competition a success. You can browse through the entire library of competition articles via the button below.


VIEW COMPETITION ARTICLES

Cureus is committed to reducing barriers to publication for authors all over the world. What does that mean in practical terms? Open Access, free and low-cost publication, fast publication times and none of the backroom political maneuvering that dominates traditional journals such as JAMA or NEJM.

 

We'd like to think this is a goal that everyone can agree with, but there are still gatekeepers who don't seem to "get it" and Cureus Founder and Editor-in-Chief Dr. John Adler is here with his latest blog post on the challenges faced by Cureus as we attempt to reframe academic publishing around a transparent, democratic process.
