CCDN News is the Newsletter of the Cassava Cyanide Diseases and Neurolathyrism Network (CCDNN). The CCDNN is a free network with more than 300 members from nearly 60 countries commenced in June 2001, which is working towards the elimination of konzo, TAN and neurolathyrism.

CCDN News will consider for publication short articles and letters (1-2 pages A 4 double spaced) written in English concerned with all aspects of cyanide poisoning, konzo, TAN and other cyanide diseases from cassava and all aspects of neurolathyrism arising from β-ODAP present in grass pea.

Because CCDN News is a newsletter, full-size original papers or reviews cannot be considered for publication. Material published in CCDN News may be freely reproduced, but always indicate that it comes from CCDNN News. Please send all correspondence to the CCDNN Coordinator, Dr J Howard Bradbury.
