PeerJ, the Open Access publisher, is proud to announce the launch of its latest PeerJ Hub: the Arctic Frontiers Hub, available at https://peerj.com/hubs/arcticfrontiers. This groundbreaking collaboration with Arctic Frontiers aims to spotlight cutting-edge research on the Arctic region, fostering a multidisciplinary community of scientists, policymakers, and Arctic stakeholders.
About Arctic Frontiers
Arctic Frontiers is a catalyst for informed decision-making, bringing together science, policy, business, and local Arctic communities to rapidly transform knowledge into action. Since 2007, the organization has hosted the annual Arctic Frontiers conference in Tromsø, Norway, a pivotal event that unites scientists, businesses, policymakers, and indigenous peoples to discuss the future of the Arctic region holistically.
Purpose of the Arctic Frontiers Hub
The Arctic Frontiers Hub will serve as a dedicated platform to showcase the latest interdisciplinary research on the Arctic region. Presubmissions will undergo a community relevance review by a specialized Hub Editorial Team, with full submissions subject to rigorous peer review through the PeerJ Life & Environment journal.
Anu Fredrikson, Executive Director of Arctic Frontiers, commented:
“We are excited to work with PeerJ and offer this publication platform for scientists and researchers. Science and knowledge are the foundation of all that we do at Arctic Frontiers. Evidence-based solutions are needed for the Arctic, so thank you for being a part of that. The Hub will provide a community, support, and benefits for those who wish to publish their work to an interdisciplinary audience with an interest in the Arctic. The broad scope of the PeerJ Life & Environment journal will also allow many early career scientists to publish their work with a discounted publication cost.”
PeerJ’s Commitment to Arctic Research
This Hub marks the third launched by PeerJ as part of its mission to provide sustainable Open Access solutions for societies and research communities. Gavin Morrison, Editorial Community Manager at PeerJ, shared:
“We are thrilled to partner with Arctic Frontiers to launch their Hub and share their vision of fostering an open, collaborative platform for Arctic research. The Arctic is a region of global importance, and research in this area is crucial. We are honored to support Arctic Frontiers and this vital ecosystem with a PeerJ Hub.”
