About ZJNNP

The Zambia Journal of Neurosurgery, Neurology and Psychiatry (ZJNNP) is a peer-reviewed, open-access medical journal that serves as a premier platform for disseminating cutting-edge research, innovative case studies, and comprehensive reviews across the neurosciences.

Established to address the unique neurological and psychiatric health challenges in the Southern African region, ZJNNP maintains rigorous international standards while highlighting contextually relevant research. Our commitment is to bridge scientific discovery and clinical practice, fostering knowledge exchange that improves patient outcomes and advances healthcare across the region.

Our Mission

To empower clinicians, researchers, and policymakers with knowledge that advances neuroscience and mental health care in Zambia and the region. We aim to bridge the gap between research and practice while amplifying voices from Africa's medical research community. Contributions on tropical neurological disorders, neuroinfectious diseases, and sociocultural aspects of mental health care are especially encouraged.

Our Vision
