Many medical researchers are focused on ways to save patients’ lives. For some, the barrier is cost of medical care; others focus on cutting edge technology to find a novel solution to save a life or preserve quality of life. From targeted reagents for disease detection to 3D printing tissue, researchers depend on ACS Publications’ content to fuel life changing research.
Enabling Next-Generation Research
One key to staying ahead of competitors is making sure researchers can access the newest, most novel research. ACS Publications boasts some of the fastest times to publication in scientific publishing. The ongoing introduction of Letters-format journals has allowed ACS Publications to shorten the time from submission to publication to as little as 4 weeks. Our As Soon As Publishable (ASAP) program makes the version of record of every article available days after the article's acceptance, so an author's work does not need to wait for an issue to publish. This brings authors’ work rapid exposure and gives the scientific community access to valuable information faster than ever before.
