Aims & Scope
Journal of Musculoskeletal Research is an international, interdisciplinary journal aimed at publishing up-to-date contributions on clinical and basic research in the musculoskeletal system. Research into the musculoskeletal system has grown tremendously in the past few decades. Meanwhile, several outstanding journals in the field have appeared, but with a different emphasis and objective. With the growing number of studies in the field, the review process has become increasingly longer. We hope this journal will serve as a new forum for both scientists and clinicians to share their ideas and the results of their studies.
