Submit an e-Pearl

The Editorial Team of the Neurology Resident and Fellow Section invites e-Pearl submissions. E-Pearls are a brief description of an important topic or clinical finding in neurology designed to educate trainees and other providers. They should be tailored to be read and absorbed within a few minutes. E-Pearls are distributed via the AAN Resident & Fellow Synapse Page, the Resident and Fellow website, and our Facebook page. The length should be 85 words or less and include one reference if applicable. 

Other suggestions:

• Do not submit a summary;
• Phrasing should not be copied word for word from sources; and
• Review the past 2 years of e-Pearl archives to ensure that you are not submitting a pearl that has previously been covered.

Please submit your e-pearl to Haley McNiff  for review by members of the editorial team. By submitting your e-pearl, you are agreeing to transfer copyright to the AAN.

To encourage broad submissions from a diverse author pool, we ask that authors avoid submission of multiple e-Pearls. Authors who have submitted an e-Pearl are asked to refrain from multiple submissions.
