Welcome to Rehabilitation Communications

Abstract

Welcome to the inaugural issue of Rehabilitation Communications-a biannual, open access, and peer-reviewed journal aiming to publish high-quality research articles in the field of basic & clinical rehabilitation sciences. The journal covers topics such as clinical practice, education, research, policy, and technology in the field of rehabilitation. It strives to promote knowledge exchange and collaboration between researchers, clinicians, educators, policymakers, and other professionals in the rehabilitation field. The journal also seeks to promote the application of evidence-based rehabilitation science to practice, research, and policy. Rehabilitation Communications, available online and in print, publishes scholarly input from the scientific and broader community related to the important themes in rehabilitation sciences. The journal emphasizes studies integrating the more expansive interdisciplinary fields of rehabilitation sciences with hardcore evidenced based. Rehabilitation Communications aims to provide a discussion platform for the rehabilitation community where healthy debate on important topics in rehabilitation sciences is possible. The journal hopes to bring basic scientists, clinicians, administrators, policymakers, and other stakeholders to one platform for efficiently utilizing physical, behavioral, and pharmaceutical agents in providing comprehensive care for patients with physical and mental disabilities. Rehabilitation Communications primarily publishes original articles and reviews, however, case reports, short communications, special reports, and letters to the editor are also accepted. In the last two decades, rapid technological advances have enabled researchers to investigate arcane biological phenomena and ask more profound questions. Several cellular processes involved in health and disease are being unraveled at a rapid pace, high resolution and with unprecedented details. Authors carrying out investigations leveraging these technologies are encouraged to submit their findings to Rehabilitation Communications. The purpose of this journal is to provide a platform to the scientific fraternity, especially regional and national academics, where they could get their studies published after a rapid, transparent, and high-quality peer review. All the articles published in Rehabilitation Communications will be freely available to readers immediately after publication. The open-access policy of our journal is likely to increase the readership of articles and enhance their visibility and citation potential. Therefore, I invite you to submit your work to Rehabilitation Communications. We look forward to receiving your submissions!   Dr Saima Gul Editor-In-Chief Rehabilitation Communications
