Healthcare information provider Wolters Kluwer Health (WK Health), US, has announced a publishing partnership with the Egyptian Ministry of Higher Education and State Ministry for Scientific Research (ENSTINET). The two organisations have agreed to collaborate on the development and publication of leading medical and scientific journals and to help create a 'Center of Excellence' in the region, bringing together the expertise of both parties. Lippincott Williams & Wilkins (LWW), publisher for medical societies and a part of Wolters Kluwer Health, will partner with ENSTINET to provide publishing services and support.
The agreement, which will commence immediately, provides ENSTINET and its partner journals with significant training and development input from the LWW journal publishing team and will result in 10 leading Egyptian medical journals being published under the LWW imprint from 2011 onwards. Additionally, over the next 5 years, another 40 journals will be published in association with LWW, enabling the publisher to develop local research in the Middle East, and bring that content to a more global audience.
This collaboration between LWW and ENSTINET to develop leading medical journal content will serve as the foundation for a 'Center of Excellence' in Egypt that supports the ongoing research needs of the Middle East region.
