Wolters Kluwer is further expanding its publishing partnership with the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), with the addition of Exercise, Sport, and Movement (ESM). Gary Liguori, PhD, FACSM, is the inaugural editor-in-chief of the new journal. He is dean of the College of Health Sciences and Professor of Kinesiology at the University of Rhode Island, Kingston, and a longtime contributor to ACSM education and publishing projects.
ESM will be an international, open access, peer-reviewed journal focusing on all aspects of exercise science and sports medicine. It will present new reports on scientific, clinical, public health, community, and policy topics. The journal will run on a continuous publication model, with articles posted online as soon as they are ready. The first issue is slated for this fall. Papers will then be compiled into quarterly compendia, the first of which is scheduled for January 2023.
Liguori and the editorial team encourage manuscripts addressing movement, fitness, exercise, physical activity, health promotion, sport, and prevention and treatment of injury and disease. Manuscripts can be submitted at www.editorialmanager.com/esam/.
