CALL FOR MANUSCRIPTS: SPECIAL JAALAS ISSUE DEVOTED TO NOISE AND VIBRATION IN THE ANIMAL FACILITY

The American Association for Laboratory Animal Science (AALAS) is the premier forum for the exchange of information and expertise in the care and use of laboratory animals. Since 1950, AALAS has been dedicated to the humane care and treatment of laboratory animals and the quality research that leads to scientific gains that benefit people and animals. Noting the need for a greater understanding of the role acoustic information plays in animal facilities and animal models, the official journal of AALAS (JAALAS) is planning a special issue on Noise and Vibration in Animal Facilities to be published in January 2007. JAALAS invites manuscript submissions that relate to the diverse impacts of noise/acoustics and vibration in animal facilities. Original experiments and review articles related to any aspect of the effects of noise or vibration on research animals are encouraged. For more information about JAALAS and author instructions visit http://www.aalas.org/publications. Questions about publishing in JAALAS or the appropriateness of an article for this special issue should be directed to journals@aalas.org. Deadline for submission of manuscripts is August 15, to allow sufficient time for peer review. Tentative publication date for the special issue is January, 2007.
