Visual journal partners with Wiley
The Journal of Visualized Experiments, which focuses on biomedical research, today announced a partnership with the Wiley-Blackwell business of publisher John Wiley & Sons Inc. to produce an online video publication.
According to its website, the journal, which refers to itself as JoVE, is based in Somerville.
The partnership will enhance articles published in Wiley-Blackwell’s Current Protocols with video demonstrations of experimental procedures to help increase their reproducibility, said the firms, which noted that Current Protocols specializes in life sciences research.
“Combining a traditional model of scientific publishing and new Internet technologies will produce strong synergies for JoVE, Wiley, and research scientists,” Rachel Burley, vice president and publisher at Current Protocols, said in a statement. “This partnership with JoVE will increase reproducibility of experimental studies across all the fields of biological and biomedical research.”
