From: Ann Shumelda Okerson <[log in to unmask] <[log in to unmask]>> Date: Fri, 8 Mar 2024 16:13:02 -0500 *Leading research publisher Taylor & Francis has announced the addition of PeerJ, a pioneer in broad-scope open access (OA) journals.* March 8, 2024. PeerJ is best known for its multidisciplinary flagship title *PeerJ Life & Environment* serving the Biological, Medical and Environmental Sciences and *PeerJ Computer Science* (covering all areas of computer science, including AI, quantum, and robotics). In addition, PeerJ offers five titles in the Chemical Sciences, meaning that in total Taylor & Francis will welcome 7 new journals to its open research program. All PeerJ journals offer high-quality peer review and rapid publication, supported by PeerJ’s own submission and peer review platform, and dedicated contributor support. Articles are selected on scientific value and methodological soundness, providing a forum for world-class research addressing many of the globe’s current challenges. PeerJ also hosts a digital hub for the International Association for Biological Oceanography, promoting the advancement of knowledge of the biology of the sea. Joining Taylor & Francis will enable PeerJ to expand its offering to researchers, including participation in Taylor & Francis’ popular manuscript transfer service, and will give scope to extend into new disciplines. PeerJ and Taylor & Francis have complementary publishing programs, with shared commitments to prioritize research integrity, empower knowledge-makers and advance open research.
