Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements

 

From the Editor

Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements (TOHM) was conceived as a journal that would publish clinical and scientific papers on tremor and hyperkinetic movements. In contrast to current publications, whose primary focus is on disorders of hypokinesia (i.e., mainly Parkinson’s disease), TOHM shifts focus, emphasizing the non-Parkinsonian movement disorders, giving center stage to clinical observations and research in this area. In doing so, the journal aims to provide an international platform for experts and specialists in the field of hyperkinetic movements.

The current turnaround time from submission to first decision is 26 days (3.7 weeks).
