Future Science Group is delighted to announce the launch of a new peer-reviewed open access journal, Future Drug Discovery
Led by an expert international Editorial Advisory Board, Future Drug Discovery is a peer-reviewed, open access journal covering the latest breakthrough science in drug discovery, research & development.
“The field of drug discovery has historically been troubled by high failure rates, and multidisciplinary research and access to data are being increasingly embraced in order to improve success,” commented Francesca Lake, Head of Open Access Publishing at Future Science Group. “Our intention is that Future Drug Discovery will harness these concepts, presenting new advances and discussing their applications and translation in an openly accessible format, and providing a forum for discussing the field at large.”
The journal’s Editorial Advisory Board includes David Clark (Charles River Laboratories), Steve Rees (Astrazeneca), Johannes Reynisson (University of Auckland), Rob Williams and Neil Jones (Cancer Research UK), Edgar Jacoby (Janssen), Giulia Caron (University of Torino), Dave C Morris (University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill), Francis Wilson (Summit Therapeutics), Xingcai Zhang (Harvard University) and Jayanth Panyam (University of Minnesota).
“In early drug discovery, time is extremely valuable,” said David Clark, PhD, Research Leader, CADD. “Open access to research, which Future Drug Discovery will provide, empowers researchers with information they need to make critical decisions earlier in the process.”
Future Drug Discovery will be a quarterly publication publishing case histories, methodologies, original research, reviews and opinion articles covering the entire drug discovery pipeline, plus topics of interest of interest to the drug discovery community. A comprehensive list of topics can be found at the journal webpage.
