The official journal name is Annals of Clinical Neurophysiology. The abbreviated name is Ann Clin Neurophysiol.
ACN adopts double blind review, which means that both the reviewer and author identities are concealed from the reviewers, and vice versa, throughout the review process. All submitted manuscripts will be initially evaluated by more than two experts in accordance with the review and revision guidelines of The Korean Society of Clinical Neurophysiology. The acceptance criteria for all papers are based on the quality and originality of the research and its clinical and scientific significance. An initial decision will normally be made within 4 weeks of the receipt of a manuscript, and the reviewers’ comments will be sent to the corresponding authors.
