Publisher John Wiley & Sons, Inc., US, and The Physiological Society have announced the renewal of their publishing partnership, building on over eight years of collaboration. The renewed partnership will ensure the society’s titles, The Journal of Physiology and Experimental Physiology, continue to develop as thought leaders of physiological research.
Under this renewed agreement The Physiological Society and Wiley will also collaborate closely on a number of new initiatives including Wiley's role as principal sponsor of the 2013 Union of Physiological Sciences Congress.
The Journal of Physiology publishes latest research from across the discipline, with the aim of developing understanding of the principles and mechanisms which govern our bodies. Published since 1879, the journal's international editorial board is led by Editor-in-Chief, Professor David Paterson of Oxford University, and currently holds an Impact Factor of 4.881.
Wiley has supported the journal's role as an opinion leader with new initiatives including the publication of dedicated neuroscience issues – eight of which will be published in 2012.
Experimental Physiology, edited by Professor Paul McLoughlin of University College Dublin, focuses on emerging areas of physiological and pathophysiological research, with emphasis on molecular and cellular functions. The journal holds an impact factor of 3.211 and will move to online-only publication from 2013.
