Open-Access Journals can pave access to Global Neurosurgery - ScienceDirect

"Joint ventures between the HIC and LMIC scientists for research in the LMIC native country with adequate funding for research and publication can be launched to promote more participation of LMIC researchers in publications. Policies by the HIC neurosurgical bodies and publishing authorities to let LMIC authors share knowledge more by extending the waiver options for the authors can make the globalization of neurosurgery meaningful. Training of LMIC neurosurgeons, which can be conducted virtually also, on research methodology, and manuscript preparation along with international research mentorship can easily be carried out, so that they can participate in publishing their research works more efficiently. The limited knowledge sharing from the LMIC is depriving the global scientific community of the diverse treasure trove of neurosurgical cases in these regions. Recognizing how these countries manage the huge number of patients with very limited resources can truly prove valuable in improving global neurosurgical services altogether. PMOA journals can play a pivotal role in that...."
