(Press-News.org) Researchers looking to share their work openly and at pace have an exciting new publishing option that delivers on reach and impact. Launched by Taylor & Francis, the Elevate Series of broad-scope open access journals offers a fast, streamlined experience and full support in navigating the publication process.
Authors will experience the editorial excellence and high ethical standards of Taylor & Francis journals, along with personalized support at every step, allowing them to efficiently publish their work and comply with the requirements of all major funder and institutional mandates.
New and optimized systems and processes developed especially for the series will ensure a smooth publication process, from submission to peer review, and production, without compromising on quality. All research submitted to an Elevate title will be subject to the same rigorous peer review as other Taylor & Francis journals.
Researchers submitting to an Elevate journal will benefit from one-to-one editorial support. Whenever authors have questions, require feedback, or just want an update on the status of their paper, they will be guaranteed a quick response from the dedicated Elevate team.
All Elevate journals will be fully open access. This reflects the ambition of Taylor & Francis to give every researcher the opportunity to choose open access (OA) and its commitment to OA as the most effective way to amplify the research that fosters human progress. Elevate titles join the range of Taylor & Francis open options, which include over 2,600 fully OA and hybrid journals, F1000 platforms and one of the leading OA book programs.
Annals of Medicine is the first journal in the series, which will soon comprise titles across subject areas, enabling a broad range of researchers to publish with Elevate. Other journals joining the series in 2023 include All Life, Cancer Management & Research and a brand-new cross-disciplinary launch, Sustainable Communities. Elevate journals will all be broad in scope, promoting collaboration and providing a holistic view of current topics to fuel further research.
Emma Greenwood, Director of Open Access at Taylor & Francis, said: “The Elevate Series has been developed to meet key priorities for today’s researchers. Fast publication along with the reach and impact of research are more important than ever. And when it comes to choosing a publisher, we know researchers want a trusted partner who will provide them with a service tailored to their individual needs. That’s what we’re excited to be offering with Elevate.”

Time of day and a patient’s sex may alter the effectiveness of blood pressure medication
2023-04-19
New research from a team based at the University of Waterloo suggests that the time of day and a patient's sex may alter the effectiveness of certain blood pressure medications.
Biological sex and the body's circadian clock are critical factors in managing blood pressure. The circadian clock is a natural, internal process that regulates things like the sleep-wake cycle and repeats roughly every 24 hours. Among its many other functions, the circadian clock also regulates kidney function. The kidneys play ...
Young adults with cancer at greater risk for HPV-related cancers
2023-04-19
A team of researchers at Huntsman Cancer Institute and the University of Utah (the U) found that human papillomavirus-related cancer diagnoses are more common in adolescent and young adults (AYAs) who have previously had cancer. The team is led by Anne Kirchhoff, PhD, MPH, investigator in the Cancer Control and Population Sciences Research Program and associate professor of pediatrics at the U.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a very common infection spread through sexual contact. ...
Could this copycat black hole be a new type of star?
2023-04-18
It looks like a black hole and bends light like a black hole, but it could actually be a new type of star.
Though the mysterious object is a hypothetical mathematical construction, new simulations by Johns Hopkins researchers suggest there could be other celestial bodies in space hiding from even the best telescopes on Earth. The findings are set to publish in Physical Review D.
“We were very surprised,” said Pierre Heidmann, a Johns Hopkins University physicist who led the study. “The object looks identical to a black hole, but there’s light coming out from its ...
Exercise boosts brain health with chemical signals
2023-04-18
Physical activity is frequently cited as a means of improving physical and mental health. Researchers at the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology have shown that it may also improve brain health more directly. They studied how the chemical signals released by exercising muscles promote neuronal development in the brain.
Their work appears in the journal Neuroscience.
When muscles contract during exercise, like a bicep working to lift a heavy weight, they release a variety of compounds into the bloodstream. These compounds can travel to different parts of the body, including the brain. The researchers were particularly interested in how exercise could ...
Who goes to the ICU and why?
2023-04-18
More is not always better when it comes to hospital care. The same interventions that could save one patient’s life could lead to no benefit, higher hospital bills and even injury for another.
A University of Michigan led study published in the journal Intensive Care Medicine interviewed almost 90 clinicians and hospital staff and performed onsite observations across eight unaffiliated hospitals in Michigan to understand why different hospitals used the intensive care unit more than others.
“You would ...
New self-powered ultraviolet photodetector
2023-04-18
Ultraviolet (UV) light detection can revolutionize industries such as civil engineering, military defense, aerospace exploration, and medical research. The future of electronics relies heavily on energy-efficient devices that can function independently, which makes the development of photoelectric UV detectors critical. These detectors come in two main types: photoconductive and photovoltaic, each with unique advantages and applications.
Photoconductive detectors rely on the changes in the conductivity ...
People with severe obesity and a genetic pathway variant have increased risk of hypertension, Mayo Clinic research finds
2023-04-18
ROCHESTER, Minn. — Obesity and its associated cardiometabolic issues are a major health concern in the U.S. and internationally. According to a study published in 2017, 12% of the world's adult population was affected by obesity in 2016, double the percentage from 30 years earlier.
With obesity comes an increasing risk of cardiovascular disease, including stroke, congestive heart failure and myocardial infarction. Fortunately, obesity is a multifactorial disease that results from an energy balance dysregulation and often is a modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease.

Physicists find unusual waves in nickel-based magnet
2023-04-18
HOUSTON – (April 18, 2023) – Perturbing electron spins in a magnet usually results in excitations called “spin waves” that ripple through the magnet like waves on a pond that’s been struck by a pebble. In a new study, Rice University physicists and their collaborators have discovered dramatically different excitations called “spin excitons” that can also “ripple” through a nickel-based magnet as a coherent wave.
In a study published in Nature Communications, ...
Sex after menopause doesn’t need to hurt
2023-04-18
Between 13% and 84% of postmenopausal women experience vaginal pain during sex
Causes of pain other than vaginal dryness are often undiagnosed and untreated
Pain during sex can harm relationships, self-esteem and contribute to depression, anxiety
Safe, effective therapies exist but condition is rarely evaluated or treated
CHICAGO --- Between 13% and 84% of postmenopausal women experience dyspareunia—vaginal pain during sex—but the condition is rarely evaluated or treated despite the availability of safe and effective therapies. With life expectancy increasing and the functional health of older adults improving, ...
