eLife: Call for submissions to anticipated high-profile journal for life and biomedical sciences

eLife, the funder–researcher collaboration for the very best in science and science communication, is now accepting submissions for its much-anticipated new journal. The open-access eLife journal will be the keystone in the initiative’s efforts to lead change in scientific publishing.

First announced in summer 2011, eLife is a researcher-driven initiative backed by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, the Max Planck Society, and the Wellcome Trust. eLife’s first aim is to launch an open-access journal for outstanding scientific advances that is also a platform for experimentation and showcasing innovation in research communication.

Beginning today, eLife invites submissions across the full breadth of life science and biomedicine – from the most basic and theoretical work through to translational, applied, and clinical research. eLife will publish the most influential findings – from advances in basic understanding to research with the potential to drive an entire field forward, and studies that demonstrate real-world outcomes.
