Organisms Diversity & Evolution - Call for Special Issue Proposals

Organisms Diversity & Evolution publishes Special Issues (SIs) on the journal’s focal topics. Special Issue proposals must be submitted to the Editor in Chief (EiC), Prof. Andreas Wanninger (andreas.wanninger@univie.ac.at), CC to the Publishing Editor of the journal, Sarah Shokouhbeen (sarah.shokouhbeen@springernature.com). Please submit your proposal (Word format) via e-mail with the subject line “ODAE Special Issue Proposal”. This is a unique opportunity for early-stage researchers to bring together junior and senior colleagues to highlight their field of research. Designing and handling a journal SI is a great way for younger researchers to gain editorial experience.

Special Issue proposals are welcome at any time during the year.

A SI proposal should include the following information:

  1. Working title
  2. Research field, highlighting the topics covered
  3. Name and contact details of the intended Guest Editor in charge who will handle all submissions and who will be responsible for all the communications with the journal
  4. A tentative list of authors to be invited for contribution 
  5. A proposed timeline for submissions (start and end dates)
