Summary:
Wiley, a global leader in research and education and publisher of the Cochrane Library, opened submissions today for Cochrane Evidence Synthesis and Methods, Cochrane’s first open-access journal.
Cochrane—a global independent network of researchers, professionals, patients, carers and people interested in health—has over 100,000 members and contributors across an established global network who publish their systematic reviews in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. The new journal opens opportunities for members and researchers to publish research outputs that go beyond Cochrane systematic reviews, aiming to further develop the evidence base published by Cochrane. It strengthens Cochrane’s ability to meet its stakeholders’ needs and publish different types of evidence synthesis, methods research evaluating how evidence syntheses is planned, produced and disseminated, and research articles on critical areas for evidence synthesis, such as, priority setting, consumer involvement, and research integrity
