Aims and Scope
EMJ Urology is an open access, peer-reviewed eJournal committed to helping elevate the quality of healthcare in urology by publishing content on all aspects of urological function and disease.
The journal is published annually, six weeks after the European Association of Urology (EAU) Congress, and features highlights from this congress, alongside interviews with experts in the field, reviews of abstracts presented at the congress, as well as in-depth features on congress sessions. Additionally, this journal covers advances within the clinical and pharmaceutical arenas by publishing sponsored content from congress symposia, which is of high educational value for healthcare professionals. This undergoes rigorous quality control checks by independent experts and the in-house editorial team.
EMJ Urology also publishes peer-reviewed research papers, review articles, and case reports in the field. In addition, the journal welcomes the submission of features and opinion pieces intended to create a discussion around key topics in the field and broaden readers’ professional interests. EMJ Urology is managed by a dedicated editorial team that adheres to a rigorous double-blind peer-review process, maintains high standards of copy editing, and ensures timely publication.
Our focus is on research that is relevant to all healthcare professionals. We do not publish veterinary science papers or laboratory studies not linked to patient outcomes. We have a particular interest in topical studies that advance research and inform of coming trends affecting clinical practice in Urology.
