Pharmaceuticals | Special Issue Mentor Program


We are pleased to announce the launch of a new initiative—the Pharmaceuticals Special Issue Mentor Program.

This program will enable early career researchers (who hold a Ph.D. in a related field) to experience editing a Special Issue in Pharmaceuticals (ISSN: 1424-8247) under the mentorship of our experienced Editorial Board Members or other experienced scientists. This program will be an excellent opportunity for early career scientists to gain editorial experience and cultivate their ability to edit scientific research.

The mentees’ responsibilities include the following:

  • Proposing a Special Issue title and assisting mentors in preparing a summary (around 150–200 words) and 3–10 keywords describing the background, importance, and goal of the Special Issue;
  • Writing a brief promotion plan for the Special Issue;
  • Preparing a list of scholars that may be interested in the Special Issue and personally e-mail invitations on behalf of the Guest Editors;
  • Collaborating with mentors to write an editorial for the online Special Issue.

The mentors’ responsibilities include the following:

  • Conducting a final check before the Special Issue is published online;
  • Performing editorial control of the Special Issue and quality control of the publications in a timely manner;
  • Providing suggestions to younger scholars if they have doubts or concerns regarding submissions;
  • Organizing regular video calls with young scholars and the Editorial Office to discuss problems and make suggestions to improve the Special Issue;
  • Making and submitting decisions for submissions with the assistance of mentees.

Certificates and awards:
After the Special Issue closes, the Editorial Office will provide official certificates to all the mentors and mentees.

If you are interested in this opportunity, please send your Special Issue proposal to the Pharmaceuticals Editorial Office, and we will discuss the process (i.e., mentor collaboration, Special Issue topic feasibility analysis, etc.) in further detail.

In addition to the new Special Issue mentor program, Pharmaceuticals will continue to welcome all Special Issue proposals focusing on hot research topics.
