Here we present the Frontiers in Pharmacology ‘Emerging Talents in’ article collection. A series dedicated to highlighting the emerging talent of student researchers within the field of Gastrointestinal and Hepatic Pharmacology.
Across the world students are undertaking key research as part of their education in Gastrointestinal and Hepatic Pharmacology, however, most of this research is not communicated to the wider audience. We recognize that this is because many student researchers find the thought of peer-review daunting. At Frontiers, peer-review is considered a collaborative process and our interactive peer-review is tailored to provide hands-on guidance and constructive feedback to researchers. Our Topic Editors are committed to the development of emerging talents and want to see student researchers strive for success at publications.
The research presented here highlights the quality and diversity of student researchers across the field of Gastrointestinal and Hepatic Pharmacology. We welcome submissions of the following article types: Brief Research Report, Clinical Trial, Correction, Data Report, Editorial, General Commentary, Hypothesis and Theory, Methods, Mini Review, Opinion, Original Research, Perspective, Review, Study Protocol, Systematic Review and Technology and Code that cover, but are not limited to, the following themes:
1. Experimental and clinical pharmacology in the fields of the alimentary tract, the liver, biliary tree and pancreas
2. The effect, mode of action or therapeutic use of drugs as well as the identification of novel pharmacological targets
3. Mechanisms which contribute to gastrointestinal sensations (such as taste, appetite, nausea and pain), acid secretion and gastrointestinal motility
4. Studies of the gastrointestinal and hepatic systems focused in cell growth and regeneration, the immune system, motor function, fibrogenesis, carcinogenesis and secretion
This Research Topic will help to identify emerging leaders and allow the community to follow the aspiring careers of our emerging, talented researchers. #EmergingTalentsIn
We recognize the difficulty of students and early career scientists to afford article processing fees. At Frontiers, we do want fees to hinder the publication by authors. Therefore, we would like to direct you to our
Fee Support Program and a number of
Institutional Agreements to support you with this.
Please Note: To be considered for this collection, the first and/or collaborating first, or second author will be a registered undergraduate or graduate student at time of submission.
Important Note: All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in the mission statement. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.
