The editor-in-chief of JNS is Scott Haldeman, D.C., M.D., Ph.D., and Rand Swenson, D.C., M.D., Ph.D. is editor. The new journal is sponsored by the American Chiropractic Association and the Foundation for Chiropractic Education and Research. Some 10,000 full-members of the ACA will be receiving JNS as a free benefit of membership.
JNS welcomes first-quality, original research and clinically-oriented research manuscripts; longer review studies; and properly executed and documented case studies in all areas reflecting the manifestations of neuromusculoskeletal function and dysfunction.
JNS Editor Dr. Rand Swenson sees the journal increasing the "interaction between scientists and practicing clinicians."
Dr. Lucido of the ACA seconded that concern: "Part of the problem is that the practice of chiropractic is ahead of the science of chiropractic."
Submissions of original research are encouraged in the following areas:
Biomechanics
Clinical Anatomy
Epidemiology and Public Health
Imaging
manual and adjustive therapy/chiropractic or osteopathy neurology occupational health orthopedics physical medicine and rehabilitation physical therapy physiology radiology sports injury and exercise physiology
