New Publication of the English Language Journal “Clinical Psychopharmacology and Neuroscience” in the Korean College of Neuropsychopharmacology

Recently, the Korean College of Neuropsychopharmacolgy (KCNP) published an English language journal “Clinical Psychopharmacology and Neuroscience” for the purpose of international communications in the area of neuropsychopharmacology and related biological psychiatry. Historically, it is the first foreign language journal published in the Korean psychiatric society. This is writing to the background of publishing an English language journal in the perspectives of the limitations of Korean language journal and the international communications with researchers all over the world. The major concerns in publishing an English language journal are discussed. The future plan of continuously publishing “Clinical Psychopharmacology and Neuroscience” and some suggestions for the researchers who are going to submit manuscripts and to read this journal are described. We hope this is helpful for the publication of English language journal planning in the editorial committee of the Korean Neuropsychiatric Association.
