journals that publish urgent topics Is there any journal that publish on urgent matters? For instance, papers on epidemiological issues on animals.
I am aware of the existence of journals on the topic, however, the normal course of publishing can take minimum 6 months, the disease that I am working on, can take less than 6 months to be introduced in the area of interest.
Thank you!
Some journals are known for rapid publications, e.g. PeerJ (30 days to first decision). Some publishers offer various venues for &quot;accelerated publications&quot;, e.g. this list at Taylor &amp; Francis. There is another list here.
In general, you could simply ask the editor of any journal from your domain beforehand whether they would grant you an exceptionally speedy submission process for reasons pertaining to an emergency issue. It is possible that they will consider such a request.
