Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The International Journal of Molecular Sciences (IJMS) plans to edit a Special Volume on “Electromyography in Neuromuscular Disorders”. The issue is intended to cover a broad spectrum of important original work on all aspects of EMG research in neuromuscular disorders. Pathological spontaneous activity, and motor unit potential or recruitment analyses may also be dealt with. Conventional needle EMG studies and also investigations on special EMG techniques such as single fiber EMG or surface EMG are welcome. The Special Issue is intended to allow enough room for a thorough introduction and discussion so that, on one hand, less well-trained colleagues will benefit. On the other hand, well-trained neurophysiologists should get an overview on actual developments in the field. With these two taken together, we expect a milestone of high-ranking contemporary EMG research in neuromuscular disorders. Do not hesitate to contribute your best new data to this inaugural issue.
Prof. Dr. Malte Erich Kornhuber

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Brain Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2200 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
