Tertiary Education and Management is the journal of The European Higher Education Society (EAIR).Tertiary Education and Management (TEAM) is an international peer-reviewed journal intended to create a better linkage of research, policy and practice in teaching and learning as well as in higher education management, governance and organisation. Being an interdisciplinary and international orientated journal, TEAM welcomes research contributions that reflect upon, study or question main developmental trends and practices, and address current and future challenges in higher education.Articles submitted should as a consequence be written for, understood by, and be relevant for a multicultural, multifaceted and international audience. TEAM is open for articles using a variety of approaches, methods and perspectives given that the articles demonstrate the relevance of the research in a broader context whether in other higher education institutions, in other national settings or in the international arena. Occasionally, TEAM also publishes articles where personal viewpoints/experiences or political arguments are made to stimulate discussion and reflection, or to challenge established thinking in the field of higher education. Such articles are published in a special "Forum" section of the journal.Peer Review Policy:All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two anonymous referees.Disclaimer for Scientific, Technical and Social Science publications:Taylor & Francis and EAIR make every effort to ensure the accuracy of all the information (the Content ) contained in its publications. However, Taylor & Francis and EAIR and its agents and licensors make no representations or warranties whatsoever as to the accuracy, completeness or suitability for any purpose of the Content and disclaim all such representations and warranties whether express or implied to the maximum extent permitted by law.

The Annals of Regional Science presents high-quality research in the interdisciplinary field of regional and urban studies. The journal publishes papers which make a new or substantial contribution to the body of knowledge in which the spatial dimension plays a fundamental role, including regional economics, resource management, location theory, urban and regional planning, transportation and communication, human geography, population distribution and environmental quality. The Annals of Regional Science is the official journal of the Western Regional Science Association.Officially cited as: Ann Reg Sci

The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review publishes invited reviews by leading experts from around the world. The range of topics covered includes all areas of astronomy and astrophysics; cosmic ray physics; studies in the solar system; astrobiology; developments in laboratory or particle physics directly relevant to astronomy; instrumentation; computational or statistical methods with specific astronomical applications; and other subjects relevant to astronomy and astrophysics.All important fields are reviewed from time to time, with the frequency of review depending on the amount of research activity.
The editors choose articles for both their scientific quality, and for their readability. They thereby provide an excellent starting point for scientists or students seeking access to a new or unfamiliar field as well as for researchers and lecturers in need of authoritative material in fields with which they are less familiar.Commonly used title abbreviations: Astron Astrophys Rev, A&AR, A&ARvAre you a membe

The Australian Educational Researcher (AER) promotes understanding of educational issues through publication of original research and scholarly essays. The journal includes contributions from local and international researchers, representing a variety of relevant disciplinary perspectives.AER provides a forum for education researchers to debate current problems and issues.Contents include book reviews, scholarly essays, original quantitative and qualitative research and papers that are methodologically or theoretically innovative.AER welcomes contributions from a variety of disciplinary perspectives on any level of education.Special Issue ProposalsAustralian Educational ResearcherThe AER will publish occasional special issues to a maximum one per annum. It is expected that the guest editor(s) of the special issue submit a proposal to the Managing Editor who will then send it out to review to the Editorial Board.  The criteria upon which it will be judged are whether the issue addresses contemporary concerns

For more than half a century, The Botanical Review has been a leading international journal noted for its in-depth articles on a broad spectrum of botanical fields. Systematics, phytogeography, cladistics, evolution, physiology, ecology, morphology, paleobotany, and anatomy are but a few of the many subjects that have been covered. The Botanical Review draws together outstanding scientists in the field, synthesizes the current knowledge about a specific subject, and promotes the advancement of botany by indicating the gaps in our knowledge and providing new outlooks on the topic.

Die Wiener klinische Wochenschrift - The Central European Journal of Medicine ist eine internationale, zweisprachige (deutsch - englisch), medizinisch-wissenschaftliche Zeitschrift, die das gesamte Spektrum der klinischen Medizin und medizinisch- gesellschaftliche Bereiche, wie Ethik in der Medizin, Sozialmedizin, Geschichte der Medizin abdeckt. Alle Arbeiten durchlaufen ein Begutachtungsverfahren. Neben Originalarbeiten (die vorwiegend in englischer Sprache erscheinen) werden Editorials und Leitartikel zu aktuellen Themen, Übersichten, Fallberichte und ein breites Spektrum von Sonderthemen publiziert.

The EMBO Journal provides for rapid publication of full-length papers describing original research of general rather than specialist interest in molecular biology and related areas. The journal encourages and publishes articles that report novel findings of wide biological significance in the areas of development, immunology, neuroscience, plant biology, structural biology, genomic & computational biology, genome stability & dynamics, chromatin & transcription, RNA, proteins, cellular metabolism, signal transduction, cell cycle, differentiation & death, membranes & transport, cell & tissue architecture, microbiology & pathogens and molecular biology of disease.The EMBO Journal has established itself over the last two decades as one of the most influential molecular biology journals. It is highly appreciated by scientists throughout the world. This is reflected not only in the approximately similar submission rates from Europe and non-European countries, but also by the fact that leading scientists throughout the world provide the editors with expert refereeing, ensuring the high quality of articles published in The EMBO Journal. In addition, the editors are supported in the selection of papers by an active Advisory Editorial Board. The EMBO Journal is one of the most highly cited journals, reflected in its latest impact factor of 10.124*.
