Journal of Biomedical Discovery and Collaboration

The Journal of Biomedical Discovery and Collaboration (DISCO) is an Open Access, peer-reviewed online journal that will encompass all aspects of scientific information management and studies of scientific practice. Currently, many scattered disciplines study aspects of scientific practice, including informatics, computer science, sociology, cognitive psychology, scientometrics, rhetoric, public policy, technology innovation, and history and philosophy of science. The journal will connect these disparate perspectives with each other, and with contemporary scientific practice. The Journal of Biomedical Discovery and Collaboration was published by Biomed Central from 2006-2008.

The journal is indexed in PubMed, PubMed Central, Google Scholar, Scopus and DOAJ.
