Joint Special Issues
The Publications Network shares publication expertise and develops cross-promotional opportunities for Member Societies who publish journals, books and any other publications. The following joint special issues are collections of top research from members of this network:
Europe’s Microbiology Network – The first issue by this network showcases a selection of the best research recently published in journals produced by societies in the FEMS microbiology network.
Microbiology & Infection – This collection of articles is curated in association with two of our Member Societies: the Association for General and Applied Microbiology (VAAM) and the German Society for Hygiene and Microbiology (DGHM).
Microbiology in Action – This special collection is a collaboration between seven Member Societies that showcases the best of microbiology.
Microbiology in Action II – This sequel to Microbiology in Action is a collaboration with eight of our Member Societies.
Building Microbial Communities – This collection was prepared for the occasion of FEMS2019 in Glasgow (July 7-11, 2019) and is a collaboration with 15 different journals linked to 10 societies affiliated with FEMS.
To get involved with the Publications Network contact Dr Erwin Ripmeester.
All but one of the not-for-profit FEMS journals are fully open access (OA), with one journal, FEMS Microbiology Letters, offering free-to-publish and OA options. Open access is key to supporting the FEMS mission of disseminating high quality research as widely as possible: when high quality, peer reviewed sound science is open access, anyone, anywhere in the world with an internet connection, can read it.
