Ulrike Knies-Bamforth, Editor Drug Discovery Today

A review of 2006

Ulrike Knies-BamforthWith this issue, the first year of e-Choice is coming to an end. It has been a successful launch and I would like to thank all the Guest Editors for their valuable contributions. The focus of this month’s e-Choice is our journal, Drug Discovery Today. For your interest, I have selected this year’s most downloaded review from each journal section (Gene-to-Screen, Informatics, Post-screen) published in 2006. To supplement these reviews, I have selected primary research papers with new findings in the respective fields.

WWe also have some news for you. In January, we are launching the Drug Discovery Today digital edition. This new product will bring the whole journal straight to your desktop and will allow you to browse, download and save the content of the journal. The new format enables us to include rich media, such as sound, video clips, and animations into articles or advertisements. Moreover, as a web-based product, it will allow direct access to related information and websites at the click of a mouse. We are very excited with the new format and think that it will enhance the quality of the journal. If you would like to sign up for it, please use this link.

We have some great topics lined up for 2007, so watch this space.

Enjoy the read!
