To thoroughly implement the national decisions and arrangements on deepening the reform and development of scientific journals, and to advance the launch of English-language scientific journals with high quality, the Journal Center recently held a promotion meeting for English-language scientific journal development. Members of the Journal Center's leadership, editors-in-chief of each English-language journal, editorial department heads, and relevant professional staff attended the meeting.
The meeting conveyed and studied the spirit of relevant documents from superior authorities on strengthening the development of scientific journals, and systematically reviewed the overall progress of the Center's English-language journal launch initiatives. The meeting noted that, amid the favorable policy environment of strong national support for the development of scientific journals, the Center has seized opportunities and taken proactive steps in planning. The launch of English-language scientific journals is progressing in an orderly manner, with continuously expanding disciplinary coverage, a growing publishing team, and a gradually improving institutional system, laying a solid foundation for high-quality development going forward.
At the meeting, the editorial departments of each English-language journal reported on their progress in launch preparations, positioning and distinctive features, editorial board development, manuscript solicitation, and institutional building. The meeting focused on the launch progress of new journals including Annals of Standards, Innovation and Global Cooperation, Creative Therapeutics, International Science Promotion Journal, Advanced Future Food Science and Technology, Applied Quantum Materials Physics, Transactions on Intelligent and Autonomous Control, Computational Intelligence Studies, and Green and Low Carbon Forage and Feed. The meeting fully affirmed the phased achievements of each journal in disciplinary positioning, editorial board formation, and inaugural issue manuscript organization, and conducted in-depth exchanges and work deployment on key aspects of the journal launch.
The meeting clarified that the next phase of English-language journal launch work will focus on five key tasks: First, strengthening top-level design — further clarifying the disciplinary positioning and distinctive development direction of each journal, building a differentiated and complementary journal matrix, and forming synergy for cluster development. Second, building a strong editorial board — bringing together renowned scholars in relevant fields from home and abroad, and giving full play to the editorial board's core role in academic leadership, manuscript solicitation, and quality assurance. Third, carefully organizing inaugural issue manuscripts — planning special topic solicitations around frontier research hotspots, ensuring a high-quality start for the inaugural issue and establishing a strong academic brand image. Fourth, improving institutional standards — establishing and refining systems for peer review, editorial publishing, and ethical guidelines to ensure the standardized operation of journals. Fifth, strengthening international dissemination — actively engaging with international academic platforms and databases, expanding promotion channels, and enhancing the international visibility and academic influence of the journals.
In concluding remarks, the head of the Journal Center emphasized that the launch of English-language scientific journals is an important initiative for the Center to serve the national innovation-driven development strategy and enhance China's international academic discourse power. Each journal must adhere to the development philosophy of "quality-driven establishment, distinctive development, and open strengthening," and advance all launch tasks with high standards and strict requirements, striving to build a cohort of internationally influential English-language scientific journals at an early date and contributing to the building of a world-leading scientific and technological powerhouse.
