ScienceOpen and CompuScript/International Science Editing partnership in China

For the formal press release, see our Press Room, STM Publishing News, and Knowledgespeak.

Chinese researchers face tremendous hurdles in communicating their research results to the rest of the world – from language barriers to internet restrictions and the traditional western bias of the scientific literature.

Confronted with the danger of being left out of the global scholarly communications, Chinese editors often publish in partnerships with publishers outside of China. This often leaves them having to give up control over the content to their global partners. However, to increase the discoverability of Chinese research in wider scientific circles, journals based in China now have new options to reach out to international audiences.

Over their 15-year history in China, CompuScript/International Science Editing—a leading European provider of publishing services to the scientific community headquartered in Ireland—have built a strong local network to help overcome these challenges, providing editorial and technical support to Chinese researchers, editors, and institutions. To support Chinese researchers and publishers and contribute to the mission of global open science, CompuScript/International Science Editing in China and ScienceOpen have partnered up to develop new products tailored specifically for the Chinese market and to utilize the full set of tools ScienceOpen offers for greater discoverability of Chinese research.

With our freely accessible, interactive discovery environment of over 45 million articles and records, ScienceOpen can put Chinese journal content in context with a web of connections to the broader research framework. In combination with CompuScript, we hope to develop new solutions for Chinese journals to increase their impact in the wider scientific community. This project fits perfectly within ScienceOpen’s mission and aspirations to keep expanding the international audience by making research from all around the world globally accessible. At ScienceOpen, we believe diverse research enriches the whole scientific community, advances scientific progress, and positively impacts wider society.

ScienceOpen’s discovery platform offers Chinese academic researchers a great opportunity to promote their research publications and cultivate their peer networks outside China. ScienceOpen also offers huge discoverability opportunities for Chinese language journals that traditionally host inside China but have some English language content, such as abstracts and translated featured articles. Hosting this content on ScienceOpen really brings this work to the global scholarly community in a much more discoverable and open manner. Through our International Science Editing service we have been working with Chinese individual researchers and publishers for over a decade. We all appreciate that free access to knowledge drives creativity, innovation and development and as such we are really excited about the opportunity to promote ScienceOpen to the Chinese academic community.

Morgan Lyons, CEO, CompuScript

ScienceOpen’s partnership with CompuScript is only the latest step in our mission to support Chinese scientific community. The CEO of ScienceOpen, Stephanie Dawson, added that partnering up with “an established service provider to explore the needs of Chinese researchers and journals in terms of reaching new readers and markets” is a great opportunity that will complement some of ScienceOpen’s ongoing successful projects.

One of those successful projects is a ScienceOpen collection featuring the ‘Journal of Radars’ – an Open Access journal jointly sponsored by the Institute of Electronics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IECAS), and the China Radar Industry Association (CRIA). ‘Journal of Radars’ is a high-end academic exchange platform, promoting and leading the science and technology development in radar field. It is committed to real and immediate open access for academic work and pursues high-level service and fast publication: the final decision upon submission of a paper will be given within two months and the accepted papers will be published online within one month. These papers are then promoted both by the journal and ScienceOpen to increase visibility among the target readers.

CompuScript partner medicine journals ‘Chinese General Practice’, ‘Family Medicine and Community Health’, and ‘Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications’ are also successfully featured on the ScienceOpen platform and have benefited from discoverability opportunities offered by our platform, both in China and internationally. As Morgan Lyons, CEO of CompuScript, noted: some of the articles in these journals are translated and most abstracts are in English. This multilingual content attracts researchers from outside of China who then have access to the full technical suite of tools on the ScienceOpen platform and can actively engage with the content of these journals. For example, the journal of ‘Chinese General Practice’ (CGP) is the first professional periodical of general practice in China, which broadly advances primary health care, general practice and family medicine in rapid health system reform and development.

With the growing volume of research conducted in China, new solutions are needed to facilitate the exchange of ideas across cultural boundaries. The partnership between ScienceOpen and CompuScript/International Science Editing is a welcome and necessary step in ensuring the discoverability of Chinese scientific research. ScienceOpen and CompuScript are both committed to grassroots solutions supported by cutting-edge technology.

ScienceOpen支持中国学术期刊的全球开放

ScienceOpen和Compuscript/国际科学编辑（ISE）在中国建立合作伙伴关系

从语言障碍到部分互联网限制，再到西方传统的科学文献偏见，中国研究人员在将科研成果传播到世界其他地方时面临着很多障碍。

面对被排除在全球学术交流之外的危险，中国期刊通常做法是与国外出版商合作出版。这往往使他们不得不放弃对期刊版权的控制，将版权交给全球合作伙伴。然而，为了增加中国研究在更广泛的科学界的传播度，中国的期刊现在有了新选择，可以更便捷地其内容传达给国际读者。

深耕中国15年，Compuscript/ISE—总部设在爱尔兰的为科学界提供出版服务的欧洲领先供应商，在中国建立了强大的本地学术网络资源。他们为中国的研究人员、期刊编辑和学术机构提供编辑和技术支持。为了支持中国科学家和出版商，致力于全球开放科学的发展，Compuscript /ISE和ScienceOpen达成合作，专门为中国市场量身定制并使用ScienceOpen的全套工具助力中国学术期刊提升国际影响力。

在ScienceOpen免费获取、交互式的发现环境中，有超过4500万篇文章和记录。ScienceOpen可以将中国学术期刊内容与更广泛的研究连接起来。与Compuscript一道，我们希望可以为中国期刊提升国际影响力开发出新的解决方案。这个项目完全符合ScienceOpen的使命和愿望，即通过让全世界的研究在全球范围内可访问，来不断扩大国际受众。ScienceOpen相信多样化、多语种的研究将丰富整个科学界，促进科学进步，并对社会产生更广泛的积极影响。

“ScienceOpen的发现平台为中国学术研究人员提供了一个绝佳的机会来推广他们的研究成果，并在中国以外建立同行学术社交网络。ScienceOpen也为中文学术期刊提供很好的平台，这些中文期刊在中国境内主办，但也有一些英语内容，比如英文摘要和翻译后的全英文文章。通过ScienceOpen平台托管这些内容，会以一种更容易被发现和更开放的方式将这些内容带给全球学术界。通过ISE语言翻译润色服务，我们已经与中国研究人员和出版商合作十余载。我们都知道，知识的免费获取推动了创造力、创新和发展，因此，我们对有机会向中国学术界推广ScienceOpen感到非常兴奋。”

Morgan Lyons, CEO, CompuScript

“ScienceOpen与Compuscript的合作只是我们支持中国科学界使命的最新一步“, ScienceOpen的首席执行官Stephanie Dawson补充说，”与一家成熟的服务提供商合作，探索中国研究人员和期刊在获取新读者和新市场方面的需求是一个很好的机会，对ScienceOpen一些成功项目也是一个有益补充。”

其中一个成功的项目是由中国科学院电子研究所(IECAS)和中国雷达工业协会(CRIA)联合承办的《雷达学报》(‘Journal of Radars’)。“雷达学报”是一个高端学术交流平台，促进和引领雷达领域的科技发展。它致力于学术工作的真实和及时开放获取发表：投稿后录用与否的决定将在两个月内做出，被接受的论文将在一个月内在线发表。这些论文随后由学报网站和ScienceOpen平台共同推广，提高目标读者的杂志品牌知名度。

Compuscript合作医学期刊“中国全科医学杂志” （‘Chinese General Practice’），‘Family Medicine and Community Health’, 和 ‘Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications’也在ScienceOpen平台上获得成功。正如Compuscript的首席执行官Morgan Lyons所指出：这些期刊上的大多数摘要都是英文的。这种多语言的内容吸引了来自中国以外的研究人员，他们可以使用ScienceOpen平台上的全套技术工具，并积极参与这些期刊内容的讨论。例如，《中国全科医学杂志》是中国第一本全面推进初级卫生保健、全科医学和快速改革发展的家庭医学专业期刊。

随着中国的研究产出越来越多，为促进中国的研究产出及时被国际学术社区了解，ScienceOpen与Compuscript/ISE将不遗余力，开发出新的可执行的解决方案来促进跨文化交流。
