Journals publishing from 2023

Extending editorial expertise with three new journals

From January 2023, two new transformative journals Nature Mental Health and Nature Water, and a review journal Nature Reviews Bioengineering will join the Nature Portfolio, providing a venue for cross-disciplinary research in the natural, applied and social sciences and an essential resource for researchers in each field. 

Like all Nature Portfolio journals, these titles will be managed by a team of professional editors who oversee the careful selection, commissioning, fair and rigorous peer-review, accurate editing, rapid publication and broad dissemination of primary research and commissioned content. The Nature Journals present the most up to date and innovative original research, while the Nature Reviews title will summarize and highlight the most impactful research providing context and connection, whatever the discipline.

High quality journals due to unique in-house editorial team

Due to the time needed to evaluate each manuscript, commission reviews and provide excellent author service, all Nature Portfolio journals have professional in-house editorial teams which are entirely independent. The editors are all trained scientists, completely dedicated to championing and representing their field within the journal they work for. They retain close ties to the community, staying in touch with researchers, prioritizing time out in the field and focusing on the significance of the research.
