An increasing number of authors are eligible to publish Open-Access for free in the FEMS journals. Oxford University Press, our publishing partner, has a growing number of Read and Publish agreements with institutions and consortia which provide funding for open access publishing. This means authors from participating institutions from all over the world can publish open access whereby the institution pays the charge.

Peer Review Week (PRW) event is right around the corner, and it's time to pick this year's theme! 

PRW celebrates the essential role of peer review in maintaining scientific quality. It brings together individuals, institutions, and organizations committed to sharing the central message that good peer review, whatever shape or form it might take, is critical to scholarly communications.

Here are the top monthly pics from our Opoortunities Board. It is as easy to view opportunities as it is to add them!

The FEMS Education Group has drafted a guideline curriculum for Degrees in Health Science. The aim is to provide microbiology teachers of health sciences degrees, with a guide to design their subject-specific teaching programs. It also seeks to define basic ideas about the knowledge to be acquired, and the methods for training professionals who must be capable to deliver microbiology knowledge and practice in the health context.
