Proposed title, objective, and strategic relevance to thrombosis practice.
Names, affiliations, role scope, and availability confirmation.
Detailed subthemes and expected manuscript categories.
Target milestones from call launch to final publication.
Send proposal materials to the editorial office by email. If preferred, you can initiate via the simple submission form and then provide supporting files directly in the follow up communication. Use a clear subject line and identify the lead guest editor for all correspondence.
The office acknowledges receipt, performs scope and feasibility checks, and may request targeted revisions. Approved proposals proceed to call setup and workflow activation. Quality of planning directly affects approval speed, so complete and realistic documentation is essential.
Before sending your proposal, validate that scope, governance, and timeline assumptions are consistent. The most common reason for revision requests is mismatch between ambition and execution detail.
Define a theme narrow enough for coherence and broad enough for quality manuscript flow.
Confirm guest editors can manage screening, review, and communication load.
Show realistic contributor outreach assumptions and contingency options.
Include a response plan for reviewer delays and uneven manuscript quality.
Validate that the proposal narrative, timeline table, and editor role matrix are internally consistent. Mismatched assumptions are the most common source of revision requests in special issue submission review.
Special issue success is operational as well as scientific. Define response timelines, reviewer backup paths, and communication ownership early. Governance clarity improves schedule reliability and protects quality across all issue phases.
Consistent process quality depends on clear ownership, timely communication, and concise documentation of key actions. Applying these habits at every stage improves predictability, reduces avoidable delay, and strengthens confidence in both editorial and operational outcomes.
Use the route that fits your workflow and send full proposal materials for evaluation.
