Scientific publisher Nature Publishing Group (NPG), UK, has announced that the eight Nature Clinical Practice journals will be rebranded Nature Reviews, effective April 2009, increasing the size of the Nature Reviews portfolio from seven to fifteen titles. Launched in 2004 and 2005, the Nature Clinical Practice journals cover the fields of cardiology, clinical oncology, endocrinology, gastroenterology & hepatology, nephrology, neurology, rheumatology and urology.
Alongside the name change, the Nature Clinical Practice journals will be given a 'facelift' in print and online. The journals will be printed in full colour and the websites will be redesigned with improved navigation. Each issue will contain 25 percent more content, providing customers with more high-quality articles each month. Prices for personal subscriptions and institutional site licenses will be unchanged for 2009.
Content will include editorials, research highlights, news & views, reviews, case studies, and perspectives articles. The journals will not alter their editorial scopes or commissioning strategies and will retain their distinguished external Editors-in-Chief and international Advisory Boards.
