Thank you so much for the paper “quality perceptions..” and the list with
11 best journals. All of this will be a help in my search for the right
place to publish my research.
Well, as you read my work is around this new mix of neurociencias
techniques and design methodologies for new develop products. In this year
of work I have been looking for extra advise in this field, cause sound
very new (and excited too).I really appreciate to know about some experts
in adjacent fields. Is evident that this work is not the only one and there
are more out of Spain.
Anything new you know, I´ll be in touch.
