Research and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis – a new ISTH publishing platform for the global thrombosis and hemostasis community

摘要

Research and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis (RPTH) is the new Open Access journal of the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH). It was launched to capitalize on the emerging open access publishing trends for knowledge dissemination after extensive methodological research and member and reader surveys identified unmet needs that could not be fully addressed with a traditional print medium. RPTH provides new publishing opportunities to showcase the rich research and education activities of the diverse networks of clinicians, researchers and allied health professionals from around the world active in thrombosis and hemostasis and beyond. The addition of RPTH to the ISTH lineup of publications is designed to foster innovation and interdisciplinary collaboration and will provide another outlet for more excellent papers to be published under the ISTH umbrella. Moreover, RPTH offers a new forum that make the latest science more accessible to the general public.
