Research reports needed about FASD – Will you submit a paper?

Scott Parnell writes: The Editor of the journal Birth Defects Research (BDR), Michel Vekemans, has agreed to dedicate a special issue to fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD) research.

The issue will focus on research dedicated to the mechanisms, contributing factors, consequences and prevention of FASD and will include manuscripts from both basic and clinical researchers, as well as reviews. We will serve as the Guest Editors.

We would like to invite you, with members of your research group, to propose a contribution to this special issue of BDR.

Please let us know no later than April 30, 2018 whether or not you would like to contribute a manuscript.


We sincerely hope that you will join us in this effort. We are looking forward to an exciting issue that highlights the wide variety of recent advances in our understanding of this important outcome.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
