The American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) is launching Ophthalmology Science, its first open access journal focused on pre-clinical development, phase I and II clinical trials, laboratory-based work, ophthalmology informatics and clinical science.
“The demand for open access journals in the medical community is increasing,” said Dr David Parke, AAO chief executive. “We are delighted to meet that demand by expanding publishing opportunities for the worldwide vision research community.”
The new online-only journal, the fourth journal published by the AAO, will be available quarterly with the first edition expected in early 2021.
