Maney acquires journals Hematology and Nutritional Neuroscience

Maney Publishing is pleased to announce its purchase of the journals Hematology and Nutritional Neuroscience.

Caitlin Meadows, Managing Editor of Maney's healthcare and biomedicine list, is delighted with the acquisitions: “These two journals represent a significant addition to Maney's healthcare and biomedicine list as they are important journals in their fields, dedicated to the international dissemination of the highest-quality research. We look forward to working with the Editors to ensure a smooth transition and to build on the excellent reputation of these well-established titles.”

Hematology is an international journal, publishing original and review articles in the field of general hematology, including oncology, pathology, biology, clinical research and epidemiology. Of the fixed sections, annotations are accepted on any general or scientific field: technical annotations cover current laboratory practice in general hematology, blood transfusion and clinical trials, and current clinical practice reviews the consensus driven areas of care and management. Hematology aims to bridge the interests and practices of both those carrying out laboratory work and those whose main inclination is towards patient care. The journal provides a forum where the clinical aspects of any published material will be emphasised. 

Nutritional Neuroscience is an international, interdisciplinary broad-based journal for reporting both basic and clinical research in the field of nutrition that relates to the central and peripheral nervous system. Studies may include the role of different components of normal diet (protein, carbohydrate, fat, moderate use of alcohol, etc.), dietary supplements (minerals, vitamins, hormones, herbs, etc.), and food additives (artificial flavours, colours, sweeteners, etc.) on neurochemistry, neurobiology, and behavioural biology of all vertebrate and invertebrate organisms. The journal will move to online-only publication in 2008.

Both titles are indexed in MEDLINE. For more information please visit www.maney.co.uk 

These titles follow the recently acquired International Musculoskeletal Medicine in to Maney's expanding list of healthcare and biomedicine journals, and will be added to the MORE (Maney Online Research E-journal) Healthcare collection, hosted by IngentaConnect.
