The Royal Society of Biology is delighted to announce the launch of a new journal, Emerging Topics in Life Sciences, jointly owned with the Biochemical Society.

The hybrid open access reviews journal will be published by Portland Press and will publish its first issue in 2017.

Highlighting new and growing fields across the life sciences, the new journal will feature reviews written for an interdisciplinary audience ranging from students and early career researchers to established scientists, each issue will focus on a new or growing field of life science research, guest edited by an expert in the field.

Dr Mark Downs CSci FRSB, chief executive of the Royal Society of Biology said:
“The topics that are emerging in the life sciences are among the most exciting new areas in science. The interdisciplinary and pan-bioscience nature of this new journal will facilitate understanding, collaboration and insight between different fields and provide a key state of the art resource for students, postdocs and established researchers alike.”

The Biochemical Society is a Member Organisation of RSB and one of its key supporters. The RSB is pleased to have this opportunity to further our collaboration, support the research community and highlight exciting life science research.
