Its content will now be published alongside 83 million publications on ScienceOpen, allowing people to access cutting-edge research in just a few clicks.

Science benefiting people

The King Salman Center for Disability Research, established by King Salman bin Abdulaziz of Saudi Arabia, strives to help all sectors of society deal with and meet the needs of people with disabilities. Today, KSCDR is one of the few centers in the Arab and Islamic world dealing with scientific research specializing in disability concerns.

The Center is built to support the establishment of the best scientific applications and the preparation of scientific programs aimed at addressing disability, and encouraging intervention in various fields of prevention, care, and rehabilitation.

The new ScienceOpen collection includes research output sponsored or endorsed by KSCDR, creating a forum for addressing disability via research and empowerment, as well as publications from the Journal for Disability Research, which seeks to encourage a greater understanding of disability and research into finding ways and means to urge rehabilitation, identifying steps towards improving the quality of life for people with disabilities

You can now submit your work for the 2023 edition directly through ScienceOpen on the KSCDR Collection page. Simply click the Submit a Manuscript button on the collection page to be redirected to the submission requirements information page.
