Wiley-Blackwell, the STM and scholarly publishing business of John Wiley & Sons, Inc, US, has announced two new publishing partnerships in the Asia-Pacific region. Under the new deals, the global publisher will publish Basic & Applied Pathology and Pacific Focus from 2008.
While Basic & Applied Pathology will be published in partnership with six pathology societies from the Asia-Pacific region, Pacific Focus will be published jointly with the Centre for International Studies at Inha University. The new collaborations will add to the growing number of Korean journals published by Wiley-Blackwell. Also, it will serve to raise its profile in the region.
Targeted at pathologists, Basic & Applied Pathology will be published four times a year as an online-only journal. The multidisciplinary peer-reviewed journal will publish research in pathology with relevance to various settings such as the laboratory, hospital and clinic. Edited by Professor Jeong-Wook Seo of Seoul National University's College of Medicine, the journal will cover the fields of experimental, anatomical, clinical, molecular, forensic and legal, and toxicological pathology in humans and animals. Each issue will include one comprehensive review article covering a topical aspect of pathology.
Pacific Focus, now in its 23rd volume, will be published three times a year. Previously self-published and edited by Professor Euikon Kim from Inha University, the journal seeks to foster diverse perspectives of research in the major sub-areas of regional political economy - including issues of security, regionalism, environment, migration, civil society, and multi-culturalism. It will provide in-depth analyses of current issues and policy alternatives to all policy makers in Asia-Pacific.
