A new open access journal from Cambridge University Press, published in partnership with the Nutrition Society, will explore the vital interaction between people and the complex community of microorganisms that live in our digestive systems. The journal, Gut Microbiome, will look at the factors that influence this gut microbiota and how they, in turn, affect our health and development.
The journal will publish research on a range of topics, including the role of different diets, pharmaceuticals, and probiotics on individuals’ microbiome, and the newly emerging field of research into how the gut microbiome influences the immune and nervous systems. The journal aims to support the development of an integrated, interdisciplinary understanding of the gut microbiome.
Gut Microbiome will open for submissions at FENS 2019 – the Federation of European Nutrition Societies’ 13th European Nutrition Conference, which is being held in Dublin this week. It will publish its first volume in 2020 following an open access, continuous publication model and be free to read on Cambridge Core, the online home for books and journals published by the Press.
The journal is the first to be co-published by Cambridge University Press and the Nutrition Society. Professor Kristin Verbeke from the University of Leuven will serve as the Editor-in-Chief of the journal.
