If you are not an assigned editor or writer yet, you can send your work to neuroalizeyouth@gmail.com.

neuroalizeyouth@gmail.com sends monthly emails informing writers of their deadlines, blog updates, and other reminders. neuroalizeyouth@gmail.com also sends mid-monthly reminders.

These are selected by neuroalizeyouth@gmail.com, but writers/articles can be nominated by their editors. Articles are selected based on quality, topic of interest, and the time they spent volunteering.

Being assigned a golden writer/editor does not give you any extra responsibilities at all. This is a new system for our team and it means we recognize you for your dedication and your hard work. This position may require you to provide advice for new writers/editors who are just getting adjusted to their roles. Again, these writers and editors are selected based on quality, topic of interest and the time they spent volunteering.

To submit, you must be aged 14-19 and currently enrolled at a secondary education institution. If you have recently completed secondary school and have not yet enrolled in university, you are eligible to apply.

Yes. As long as your articles fulfill the criteria, you can make multiple entries.

Provided that your work is original, published work is accepted. Please provide a reference for the date and media of the publication

Your article should only be written by you. Any outside assistance or group work must be stated at the beginning or end of the entry.

Articles must be in English and at least 400 words but not exceed 1,200 words. Word count includes footnotes, titles, headers, footers, and in-text citations; but not reference lists. References should be clearly documented with in-text citations and references list in APA or MLA style. Plagiarism will not be tolerated. Your article must be your own words unless quotations are explicitly noted. If plagiarism is suspected, the article will be examined.

Aim to address a topic holistically from a balanced perspective. Have a clear organization of your thoughts. Demonstrate a clear understanding of the big picture and fundamental concepts by not being too focused on details. Submissions should be well-researched, well-informed, and formal in style and prose. Evidence is crucial. Avoid sweeping and ostentatious overstatements. Do not feel obligated to use technical language. We are looking for ideas, not jargon. References that are more than ten years old are likely to have outdated ideas. Be sure to use up-to-date resources. Using many quotes may lead us to think you did not grasp the topic. Come up with your own questioning and reflection on the topic

There will be no publication charges.
