The Second Global Symposium on Health Services Research will take place in Beijing in October/November 2012.

We are delighted to announce that if you are a researcher whose work has been accepted for presentation at the symposium then you can receive a 25% discount on article-processing charges if you submit your manuscript to BMJ Open before 6 July 2012.

Just mention in your covering letter that your work has been accepted for presentation at the symposium and include the acceptance letter as a supplementary file.

Acceptance by BMJ Open will still be subject to satisfactory peer review. Full fee waivers remain available to authors where needed.
