COVID-19 and impact on peer review

As a result of the significant disruption that is being caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we are very aware that many researchers will have difficulty in meeting the timelines associated with our peer review process during normal times.  Please do let us know if you need additional time. Our systems will continue to remind you of the original timelines but we intend to be highly flexible at this time.

Topical Collections

For the moment, this journal is not accepting proposals for special issues/topical collections. We expect to be able to be open for proposals medio 2021. Please contact ties.nijssen@springer.com if you have further questions and/or to discuss other options.
