EDP Sciences and the American Society of ExtraCorporeal Technology (AmSECT) have announced a new publishing partnership. From January 1, 2023, the Journal of ExtraCorporeal Technology (JECT), AmSECT’s flagship publication, will be published by EDP Sciences. From the same time, JECT will also become a fully gold open access journal ensuring the highest possible accessibility to quality research in the field of Perfusion. To support this move to open access, AmSECT will fully fund the cost of article processing charges (APCs) for AmSECT members. Another benefit of the partnership is an agreement to digitize the JECT archives which date back to 1967 and contain a wealth of valuable content.
JECT is the longest, continuously published periodical in the field of Perfusion and has hitherto been self-published by AmSECT based in Chicago, IL, USA. It has served as the official publication of AmSECT since 1967 and supports a global community of perfusionists, anesthesiologists, surgeons, and researchers in these fields where technology evolves continually. Its international editorial board is comprised of leading experts from several countries.
EDP Sciences is an established open access, society publisher and offers a comprehensive suite of flexible services to learned societies with publishing programs. Existing partners are located throughout the world and serve a range of disciplines.
