STM publisher Springer and the Kunming Institute of Botany (KIB), part of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), are set to launch a new journal - Natural Products and Bioprospecting (NPAB).
NPAB is a fully sponsored open access journal, and will be included in the SpringerOpen portfolio, available on www.springerlink.com. The journal is part of Springer's Chinese Library of Science (CLoS), a collection comprising more than 90 English-language research journals from China.
The journal aims to serve as an international forum for essential research on all branches of natural products, including plant biochemistry, bioorganic and medicinal chemistry, biosynthesis and microbiological transformation, fermentation and plant tissue cultures and bioprospecting of natural products. The international editorial board, made up of renowned experts and scholars, guarantees the high academic standards of the articles and supports an expeditious manuscript-review process.
The SpringerOpen model allows the journal's contents to be fully and immediately open access, available to anyone with an Internet connection. SpringerOpen journals are published under the Creative Commons Attribution license, which facilitates the open distribution of copyrighted work. According to this license, Springer will not reserve any exclusive commercial rights.
