ISN Global Outreach Postings


Dear Members of ISN Affiliated Societies

As part of ISN's overall education strategy, ISN has launched last year an initiative called 'Global Outreach Postings (GOP)'. The aim of this initiative is to grant access to nephrologists from emerging countries to publish manuscripts that are in line with ISN's mission and of interest to readers from around the world, including in emerging countries.
ISN Education has gathered a team of reviewers from all over the world to help bring the submitted manuscript to publication standards. The publication of articles as GOP does not require any fee and may be subsequently submitted to a journal after publication on the ISN Education website; articles already published in a journal cannot be submitted without permission from the copyright holder (usually the journal).

The following requirements are a guide for submissions to Global Outreach Postings:

・Length of the manuscript: less than 3000 words
・Subjects: all subjects related to nephrology applied to the realities of developing countries.
・Language: English only
・References: a maximum of 30
・Tables and illustrations: maximum of 2- 3 tables and/or figures
・The principal authors must reside and work in an emerging country, and at least one must be a member of ISN

A couple of articles have already been published on ISN: click here to view them.

We would like to ask for your support to promote this important initiative. We would be grateful if you could include a note on the Global Outreach Postings via your communication channels ( web, mailing etc... ) Also, we have made a slide about GOP which you can use whenever you are talking to a relevant audience. You can download it here (if this link does not work on your computer, ask Ariane Brusselmans to send it to you. )

Thank you very much in advance for your cooperation.

With best regards
