The British Editorial Society of Bone and Joint Surgery has announced the launch of Bone & Joint Research, a new open access journal poised to revolutionise research communication in the field of orthopaedics. The British Editorial Society of Bone and Joint Surgery is the publisher of the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (Br). Andy Carr, Nuffield Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at the University of Oxford, UK and founder of the Botnar Institute, serves as the Editor-in-Chief of the journal.
Bone & Joint Research seeks to provide researchers and developers a new way to reach the global orthopaedics community more effectively. All articles published in the journal are free to access online. Instead of libraries paying a subscription fee, authors, or their funding bodies, pay a publication charge that then ensures their work is instantly and freely available worldwide.
As a not-for-profit organisation, the British Editorial Society of Bone and Joint Surgery has made publication charges as affordable as possible with waivers for low income countries and a special 10 percent discount for reviewers and members of partner Associations.
The journal is now open for submissions, including clinical and translational laboratory studies as well as studies from the device and pharmaceutical industries. The journal is now live at www.bjr.boneandjoint.org.uk. Interested parties may submit their paper online at http://orthodox.jbjs.org.uk.
