ScienceOpen and the Microbiology Society Promote Cross-Disciplinary Research
ScienceOpen partnered with the Microbiology Society to determine new ways to showcase cross-disciplinary research. According to the press release:The ScienceOpen discovery environment provides state-of-the-art technological infrastructure to promote exciting new initiatives from the Society’s journals. Interdisciplinarity is key for the Microbiology Society in reaching a wide range of researchers, from microbiologists, clinicians, epidemiologists, social scientists and policymakers to physicists, chemists and engineers. In line with their mission to advance the understanding and impact of microbiology by connecting communities worldwide, the Society is exploring new ways to package digital information, from pop-up journals to mini-review formats, to bring diverse researchers together to solve global problems. … Tasha Mellins-Cohen, Director of Publishing at the Microbiology Society, believes ‘As publishers, we have to reach out to researchers on the platforms they use, rather than expecting them to come to us. ScienceOpen offers us an opportunity to do that.’ For more information, read the press release.
