PLoS ONE
PLoS ONE is a high-volume, efficient, and economical system for the publication of peer-reviewed research in all areas of science and medicine. It provides a unique forum for community dialogue using the full potential of the web to accelerate scientific progress.
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases will be the first open access journal devoted to neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). The journal will publish high quality, peer-reviewed research on all scientific, medical, and public health aspects of these forgotten diseases affecting the worldÕs forgotten people. Launching 2007.
PLoS Hub for Clinical Trials
PLoS Clinical Trials has merged with PLoS ONE. Researchers and clinicians interested in clinical trials research can read and interact with articles via the new PLoS Hub for Clinical Trials, which includes all previous PLoS Clinical Trials articles together with clinical trials research from PLoS ONE. Authors who are interested in publishing clinical trials research with PLoS should continue to submit directly to the journal that best suits their needs; PLoS ONE is now welcoming submission of papers reporting results of all types of clinical trials, irrespective of outcome.
