The journalÊs peer review process focuses on the technical soundness of papers, leaving the assessment of their impact and importance to the scientific community. FEBS Open Bio is owned by the Federation of European Biochemical Societies (FEBS, http://www.febs.org), a charity whose objectives are to promote research and education in the molecular life sciences. Any income from the journal will be used to support scientists through fellowships, courses, travel grants, and other FEBS initiatives. FEBS Open Bio publishes experimental findings, critical analysis, methodological and technical innovations, and hypotheses. Novel or innovative work is encouraged, but papers describing sound science of a confirmatory nature in developing fields or extending knowledge of an important topic from one organism to another will also be considered. Articles originally submitted to other FEBS Press publications (FEBS Letters, The FEBS Journal and Molecular Oncology) can be transferred for consideration by FEBS Open Bio with their original reviewer reports, without the need to resubmit or reformat the manuscript. FEBS Open Bio offers: ● Easy online manuscript submission and tracking system ● Fast and helpful peer review ă median time to first decision 25 days in 2015 ● Transfer service for articles from other FEBS Press journals, conserving peer reviews ● Fast publication ■ Accepted articles published online within 7 days (subject to receipt of a signed license agreement) ■ Author-corrected final version available within 20 days (subject to receipt of Article Publication Charge) ● All articles are deposited in PubMed Central and indexed in PubMed SUBMISSION PROCEDURE Papers should be submitted using the FEBS Open Bio online submission system, https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/febsopen. You will be guided stepwise through the creation and uploading of your files. The system automatically converts source files to a single PDF file of the article, which is used in the peer-review process.

  • Quantitative Portrait of Open Access Mega-Journals
    Malaysian Journal of Library & Information Science, Vol. 24, no.2, August 2019: 115-131 Quantitative portrait of open access mega-journals Mohammadamin Erfanmanesh Department of Library and Information Science Faculty of Computer Science and Information Technology University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur, MALAYSIA E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] ABSTRACT Nowadays, Open Access Mega-Journals (OAMJs) represent a substantial part of the scholarly communication system. The current research is conducted with the aim of providing better insights into the increasingly important OAMJ phenomenon through investigation of eight reputable titles using established bibliometric methods. Results of the study showed that eight studied OAMJs were responsible for 1.87% of the total number of publication indexed in Web of Science during 2012-2016. Despite the decline in publication count of PLOS ONE over the past couple of years, it was the biggest journal in the world till 2017, when Scientific Reports overtook PLOS ONE as the most productive journal. Over 88% of the papers published in eight selected OAMJs were cited at-least once at the point in time of analysis. The highest proportions of cited and un-cited documents were seen in Scientific Reports and SpringerPlus, respectively. With regard to the three indicators, namely share of highly- cited papers, the category normalized citation impact as well as the JIF percentile, IEEE Access had by far the best performance among eight examined OAMJs. Results of the study revealed that Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, Multidisciplinary Sciences, Neurosciences, Oncology and Immunology were the most commonly assigned subject categories to OAMJs’ content.

  • A Presentation of the Self-Publishing Model (SPM) As the Advent of a New Era of Scientific Communication
    Self Publishing Model (SPM) A Presentation of the Self-Publishing Model (SPM) as the Advent of a New Era of Scientific Communication Author: Nour Ouda, Claus Jacob Endorsed by: Claus Jacob Edited by: Ahmad Yaman Abdin and Muhammad Jawad Nasim This manuscript is being published under the auspices of the Self Publishing Movement (SPM) to promote the free and unbiased exchange of scientific knowledge for all. The manuscript has not been refereed in order to protect the originality and to preserve the creativity of the author(s) and her/his/their ideas. Instead, it has been edited and endorsed by peers to ensure that format and content both adhere to acceptable international standards. Endorsements, criticism, comments and debate are always welcome. The intellectual property rights and copyright of this piece of original work reside with the author(s) and due credit should be given if this work is being cited. 0 Self Publishing Model (SPM) Abstract Traditional scientific dissemination via journals is problematic. It restricts the free exchange of knowledge due to financial restraints and, because of a subjective reviewing process, often impinges on authors’ originality. Eventually, important pieces of research are lost, whilst others are skewed in order to please anonymous referees. The Self-Publishing Movement (SPM) considers the free and open access to scientific knowledge as a right for all. Under the auspices of the SPM disseminating and acquiring knowledge is free of charge. The originality and creativity of authors’ work and ideas are preserved by avoiding the influence of referees. The standard linguistic and scientific quality of the work can be maintained by peer editors and endorsers before the dissemination.

  • FEBS Publications Committee Report 2013
    FEBS Publications Committee Report 2013 In 2013 there were two Publications Committee Meetings: one in May (Cambridge) and one in July (St. Petersburg). The Chairman of the Committee attended the business meetings with Elsevier (Cambridge in March) and Wiley (Oxford in April); participated in the Editorial Board meetings of FEBS Letters (Debrecen in May) and FEBS Journal (Heidelberg in October); and was invited to join the Public Affairs Committee of “The Association of Learned and Professional Society Publishers” (ALPSP). The Committee decided that the fee for immediate open access would be the following from 2014: it stays at 3000 USD at FEBS Journal, and changes to 2200 USD in FEBS Letters and to 2700 USD in Molecular Oncology. (The Open Access publication fee for FEBS Open Bio is 1200 EUR.) The Committee appointed several new members to the editorial boards of the four FEBS journals. The Chairman of the Publications Committee, the chief editors of our journals and the journals themselves became signatories of DORA (The San Francisco “Declaration on Research Assessment “, DORA) which was made public on May 17 2013. The By-Laws of the Publications committee was modified effective by September 4, 2013. The new version of the By-Laws regulates clearly how elected/voting members of the Committee make decisions. The Publications Committee decided, after the limitation of the annual Prize money by FEBS Finance Committee to 5K for each Prize each year, that from the year 2015: - FEBS Letters Prize will be awarded every second year without age limitation, selecting the best paper and keeping the value of the prize money at 10K EUR; - FEBS Journal Prize will be awarded annually for young investigators without changing the established selection criteria but lowering the prize money significantly (very likely to 1000 EUR).
