Editorial Guidelines
www.samedanltd.com
Articles included in International Clinical Trials vary between 1,500 and 2,500 words in length, and are usually accompanied by whatever visual materials (photographs, diagrams, graphs and so on) the author is able to provide.
The absolute prerequisite of unpaid articles in ICT is that they are non-promotional contributions. We are looking for objective discussion of the author’s particular subject as opposed to information regarding their company’s activities or services. We are happy for the author to write on any aspects they consider pertinent or of particular interest, and we
by-line the author and the company concerned. All articles go through our thorough editing process to ensure accuracy and consistency, so your article may differ from the original text sent.
So that we have an idea of the direction you intend to take, we ask for a short synopsis (100-200 words) of your proposed subject. This helps to avoid disappointment should the same topic be tackled by more than one contributor. Please note that due to various constraints, it sometimes happens that articles commissioned for one issue have to be postponed until a later issue.
What to send• Text in an unformatted Word document should be emailed as an attachment.• A contact email address for the author(s) is also required that can be printed at the end of the article.• Please include a short biography (100-150 words) about the career and education of the author(s). • We prefer to include pictures of any author(s) with each biography. This, along with any images or diagrams,
can be emailed as jpeg, tiff or eps files of at least 300 dpi at the size they are to be used.• A note on references – please supply references in the following format:
1. Name AB, Name BC, Name CD and Name DE, Paper Title, Journal xx: pp xxx-xxx, 20072. Name EF, Name FG, Name GH and Name HI, Paper Title, Journal xx: pp xxx-xxx, 2007Their position in the text should be marked by: (1), (2) etc. Please try to keep references to a minimum – we can only publish more than 20 references per article in exceptional circumstances.
What happens nextBefore publishing your article, we send by email a low res PDF of the final design proof to check and give written approval for. This takes place in the week before the issue goes to print and it is important that you or a colleague is available during this time to approve the article. In the interests of accuracy, we never run an article without final written approval of the design proof.
