Nature Communications launched

Nature Publishing has launched the peer-reviewed, multidisciplinary journal, Nature Communications.

"Nature Communications will not be competing with Nature Publishing Group's existing journals. Nature Communications instead provides a venue for the many comprehensive, rigorous and often elegant studies that do not have such broad appeal – the so-called 'specialist interest' papers."

Its focus will be on primary research with no plans to publish news or opinion pieces and authors have the choice to pay for an open access option that allows the article to be viewed by anyone with or without a subscription.
