[vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Special Call for Submissions” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]The Historical Perspectives in Art Section is open to scholars and clinicians who are interested in researching art history as it broadly relates to rehabilitation medicine. Areas of interest include anatomy, disease, illness, health, the cultures of rehabilitation science and of the clinic, medical education, history of medicine, disability, physical limitations, trauma, and power relations as these are represented and interpreted in visual art. See past issues for content examples at: https://jhrehabredesign.ecdsdev.org/.

Articles submitted to the Historical Perspectives in Art Section of The Journal of Humanities in Rehabilitation undergo a rigorous peer review process; however, they will not undergo blinded reviews. After an author submits an article, two members of the editorial staff will review the submission and determine whether it might be an appropriate fit for the journal. The editorial staff will then send the article to two external peer reviewers (one who specializes in art history, and one who specializes in the rehabilitative sciences). Authors should verify the permissions status of any associated media. Authors are responsible for acquiring the rights to use all media.

We hope that you will reflect on your experiences in the humanities of rehabilitation and consider submitting a piece to our journal. If you have an idea of an event or experience, but are unsure of how it might fit into our format, please feel free to contact us to discuss.

Please indicate the name of the journal (The Journal of Humanities in Rehabilitation) in the subject box during submission via e-mail.
