ScienceOpen has been committed to making science open from its onset. Some of our latest projects in realizing this commitment have been launching the ‘UCL Open: Environment‘ megajournal, contextualizing the new open access journal ‘BMJ Open Science’ into the ScienceOpen research discovery environment of 53 million article records, and offering some ideas on how you can contribute to open science in small but significant ways.

In light of the 6th Open Science Conference organized by the Leibniz Research Alliance Open Science in Berlin this week, we decided to give you an overview of some of the most relevant and diverse research content on open science curated in the form of researcher-led collections on ScienceOpen. Our research recommendations below discuss some of the most pertinent issues in open science, such as the FAIR data principles, reproducible research, metadata, and open access scholarship. Enjoy!

Portland Press partners with ScienceOpen to foster research in neuronal signaling

For the official press release, please see our Press Room and Knowledgespeak.

Neuronal Signaling, a new open access journal published by Portland Press, joins ScienceOpen to foster research and reviews on all aspects of signaling within and between neurons in the form of an interactive featured collection on the platform.

Owned by the Biochemical Society, Portland Press promotes the future of molecular biosciences and the wider life sciences. Neuronal Signaling is an online-only, fully open access journal grounded in the fields of cellular signaling pathways, biochemistry, and molecular biology. It spans a variety of neuroscientific disciplines, from molecular mechanisms of neuropathologies and neurodegeneration, to signaling in consciousness and memory. All articles in the journal are published with a CC BY Creative Commons License. Open for submissions, you can submit your article to Neuronal Signaling today.
