BioSpine-Neurospine Special Issue
Topic: Disc Degeneration and Regeneration

Dear Colleagues:

We are very pleased to announce that Neurospine has an upcoming special issue focusing on research for Intervertebral disc degeneration with BioSpine Collaboration.
BioSpine (International Congress on Biotechnologies for Spinal Surgery) was founded at the suggestion of Dr. Hans Jörg Meisel, President of REGENERATE Europe in 2002.
Since 2002, seven successful meetings have been organized by Dr. Meisel, founder and Chair BioSpine. Dr. Gianluca Vadalà, and Dr. Marianna Tryfonidou have been instrumental in organizing the recent meetings.
This special issue project will be a synergic effort between the BioSpine and Neurospine in the field of intervertebral disc degeneration and regeneration. The leading editors for this issue include Prof. James D Kang (USA), Prof. Hans Jörg Meisel (Germany) and Prof. Joo Han Kim (Korea). Prof. Gianluca Vadala (Italy) and Prof. InBo Han (Korea) play a major role as the executive editors. The target date for publication of the “rtebral disc degeneration” special issue is in March 2020.

Neurospine (https://www.e-neurospine.org) is the official journal of ASIA SPINE, Neurospinal Society of Japan, Taiwan Neurosurgical Spine Society, and Korean Spinal Neurosurgery Society (KSNS). Now, Neurospine is indexed/tracked/covered by Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI), PubMed, PubMed Central, Scopus, KoreaMed, KoMCI, EBSCO host and Google Scholar.

The editorial team members for this special issue are comprised of expert, world-leading intervertebral disc researchers, and surgeons, who will ensure that articles published in this special issue will provide balanced views and evidence-based knowledge to our readers.
