Publication
of a Clostridium difficile
Special Issue of
the Journal of Medical Microbiology
Following the great success of the Clostridium difficile
special issue of the Journal of Medical Microbiology published
from papers presented at the First International Symposium (JMM 2005; 54, part
2), the editor-in-chief and the publishers (Society
for General Microbiology) have agreed to publish another special issue for
this second symposium.
All authors of papers – both oral and poster – that
are accepted for presentation at the meeting will be invited to submit their
work as a paper to JMM. All submissions will be handled exactly as for regular
submissions, and will be subjected to stringent peer review. There is no
guarantee of acceptance but we hope as many authors as possible will submit
their work for consideration. The final product will be a valuable resource for
current research being done on C. difficile, as well as a useful record of the meeting. The main
stipulation for submitted papers is that they must be original: the work must
not have been published elsewhere before. We also hope to publish one or
two reviews in this issue from an invited speaker.
A submission deadline will be set for around 3
months after the meeting is over (end Sept 2007), and the issue should be
published early in 2008 (last time it appeared in February). To prepare your
manuscript please check out the Journal website: http://jmm.sgmjournals.org/. Submitted
papers should mention the special issue in a covering note. JMM does not have a
submission fee or make page charges.

Editor-in-chief JMM
