Open access publisher BioMed Central, UK, has announced the appointment of Jean-Claude Bradley as a co-Editor-in-Chief for Chemistry Central Journal.
Jean-Claude Bradley is an Associate Professor of Chemistry and E-Learning Coordinator for the College of Arts and Sciences at Drexel University, Philadelphia. He leads the UsefulChem project, a synthetic organic chemistry initiative started in the summer of 2005 to make the scientific process as transparent as possible by publishing all research work in real time to a collection of public blogs, wikis and other web pages.
Jean-Claude coined the term Open Notebook Science to distinguish this approach from other more restricted forms of Open Science. In 2008 he created the Open Notebook Science Solubility Challenge to crowdsource the measurement of non-aqueous solubility.
Chemistry Central Journal publishes peer-reviewed open access articles in all areas of chemistry. The journal comprises 8 subject sections. These include Organic Chemistry,
Inorganic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Biological Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Environmental Chemistry, Materials and Polymers and Food Science.
