The University of California and JMIR Publications today announced a two-year partnership that will make it easier and more affordable for researchers from all 10 UC campuses to publish in one of JMIR’s 30+ open access journals. The pilot, which provides subsidies for faculty who publish with JMIR, is UC’s first such agreement with a native open access publisher.
Under the agreement, the UC Libraries will automatically pay the first $1,000 of the open access publishing fee, or article processing charge (APC), for all UC authors who choose to publish in a JMIR journal. Authors who do not have research funds available can request financial assistance from the libraries for the remainder of the APC so that they can publish completely free of charge.
Science, power of smell is focus of UC Davis lecture
In a time when the loss of smell is one of the notable effects of COVID-19, an upcoming joint lecture will explore the composition of aromas and their role in how people experience food and the world around them, hosted by UC Davis at 5 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 10.
The online event will feature food-science author Harold McGee, whose new book, “Nose Dive: A Field Guide to the World’s Smells,” reveals the power of smell to expose unseen details of the world and life, and UC Davis Professor Susan Ebeler, who studies how aroma compounds interact and contribute to complex food and beverage flavors.
