Scientific publisher Nature Publishing Group (NPG), UK, and BioCentury Publications, Inc., US, have announced the launch of a full-text HTML version of SciBX: Science Business eXchange to complement the existing distribution via PDF. The HTML version is expected to appeal to librarians serving academic and corporate research institutions.
A weekly publication, SciBX evaluates hundreds of high impact peer-reviewed scientific papers and selects the most commercially relevant findings that merit deeper analysis. Each issue contains analysis, in-depth articles examining the commercial impact and next steps required to translate the latest developments in the lab into innovative healthcare solutions. This coverage is complemented by The Distillery, a compilation of the most recently published science with commercial implications, including information on patent and licensing status. The same content will be published weekly in both formats.
SciBX is now compatible with the site license subscription model, whilst maintaining the simplicity and convenience of PDF delivery for biotechnology and pharmaceutical executives and the investment community. Under the site license option, SciBX will be integrated with the services on www.nature.com, allowing full-text search of archived content, registration for Table of Contents E-alerts, links to references and inclusion of articles from SciBX in Saved Search results. The complete archive back to Issue 1 will be available in HTML by the end of the year. Pricing for site-wide access is calculated based on institution type and size.
