Dossier

Connexe’s Editorial Board welcomes dossiers on specific research topics. Researchers wishing to submit a dossier must send a brief description highlighting the scientific issues at stake, as well as a provisional table of contents to connexe@unige.ch. Dossiers comprise up to 10-12 articles, all subject to double anonymous peer review. They must not exceed 50,000 signs.

Connexe’s Editorial Board and Scientific Committee decide on the relevance of dossiers for the journal.
