The second paper I've published with PNAS and so far they have both been nice experiences. I would definitely submit another article to them again in the future. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America: 3.9 weeks: 6.3 weeks: n/a: 2: 5 (excellent) 4 (very good) Accepted: 2020. There is increasing evidence for variation in rates of nucleotide substitution among divergent taxonomic groups. Here, we summarize published rate data and show a strong relationship between substitution rate and body size. For instance, rates of nuclear and mtDNA evolution are slow in whales, intermediate in primates, and fast in rodents. A similar relationship exists for poikilothermic. Choose the open access option. All PNAS papers are freely available within 6 months of publication. « Authors may publish an expanded research article with a 10-page limit, if they wish, for an additional fee. These articles follow the same peer review process as regular papers. SBMISSIN AN REIE 3. PBLISIN PTINS PEN ACCESS and EPANE ARTICLES.

The first monthly issue of PNAS was published on January 15, 1915, with 17 articles, including a report from the home secretary summarizing the National Academy of Sciences’ (NAS) 1914 Autumn Meeting. Papers were between one and four pages in length, for a grand total of 58 pages. In contrast, PNAS is now published daily online and in weekly issues. Our December 29, 2015 issue contains 60 articles, 293 print pages, and 136 online-only pages, with an average article length of 6.8 pages, not to mention all of the supplemental data. In the last 100 years, PNAS has published well over 150,000 articles and nearly 650,000 printed pages, covering research in a wide swath of physical, biological, and social sciences. The PNAS Office receives around 50 Direct Submission papers a day for consideration and, after initial review by the Editorial Board, about half of them—close to 7,000 papers a year—are sent for review. In the last few years, about 3,000 Direct Submission research articles have been published annually, which constitutes an acceptance rate of 16–19%. More than 75% of published papers are Direct Submissions (i.e., not contributed by NAS members). A 120-word statement about the significance of the paper is prominently displayed on the first page of each research article to allow a casual reader to understand its importance. Moving into the next century, our primary focus will remain on publishing the highest quality scientific papers.
PNAS is one of the most widely read interdisciplinary journals in the world, and the online edition receives well over 25 million hits per month. PNAS continues to be a leading player in the dissemination of the best scientific research. In January 2013, we expanded the front section of the journal with five new article types—Core Concepts, Opinions, News Features, Science and Culture, and Inner Workings—with the goal of better explaining and more actively discussing the core research we publish. A senior editor oversees and recruits content for these sections, as well as the Journal Club blog (blog.pnas.org). The front section continues to be mentioned as an attractive feature of PNAS by readers in annual surveys. Other nonresearch pieces in this section can also highlight important scientific and funding issues, such as the Perspective on the state of biomedical research in the United States by Alberts, Kirschner, Tilghman, and Varmus ().
To celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the journal and a century of groundbreaking research, we published Anniversary Commentaries and Perspectives on notable papers from our archives. In all, we commissioned 3 Special Features, 7 Commentaries, 8 Perspectives, and 12 front matter articles, all discussing landmark papers published in PNAS: for example, Nash’s paper on game theory (), Nirenberg and Matthaei’s paper on in vitro translation (), Pauling and Coryell’s paper on the magnetic properties of hemoglobin (), and Hunter and Sefton’s paper on tyrosine kinase (). Our Anniversary portal (pnas100th.org) collects all of this content, as well as three eye-catching videos, each featuring a significant publication from the PNAS archives, and an interactive timeline.
The member Contributed submission track is a unique feature of PNAS, whereby NAS members can select their own reviewers, although the final version of the paper requires approval by a member of the PNAS Editorial Board. This track remains a privilege of NAS membership and is a source of debate with NAS members and nonmembers alike. To make the process more transparent and stringent, we have mandated since October 2015 that the names and affiliations of the reviewers be listed alongside the name of the contributing member. We have also asked that members submit their contributions directly to the PNAS Office with the names of the reviewers so that the PNAS Office can handle all correspondence during the review process. The member receives the reviews and makes the decision to respond and to submit a revised manuscript. As before, the final say regarding the suitability of the work for PNAS rests with a member of the Editorial Board. To level the playing field, members are no longer permitted to submit a paper for a nonmember or to serve as a “prearranged” editor for a nonmember’s paper.
For many years, PNAS has published a disproportionately high number of manuscripts in the biological sciences, even though nearly half the NAS membership is in the physical sciences and mathematics. To encourage more participation from the nonbiological sciences, we have hired a recruiting editor dedicated to spearheading solicitation of papers from the physical sciences and mathematics. We have also added two new associate editors and expanded the Editorial Board with additional expertise in social science, economics, engineering, and sustainability.
It boasts a massive list of powerful features and is currently one of the fastest apps in the entire photo-editing space.As the name might imply, Pocket is a tool that lets you “pocket” articles, videos, and web pages for later viewing. Pocket is free to use, but if you want enhanced search capabilities and an ad-free experience, then you’ll want to take advantage of the premium subscription ($5 per month or $45 per year).Google Reader may be dead and gone, but a proper RSS reader is still a must. Moreover, it’s compatible with Apple’s Continuity and Handoff features, so you can swap devices while in the middle of a document without fear of losing your work.Mac users have access to a vast selection of excellent photo-editing apps, but even against its many competitors, Pixelmator stands out as one of the best.

For nearly five decades, I have witnessed PNAS displayed prominently on library shelves, but as of 2015 the journal stopped advertising a print option to subscribers. I am saddened by this loss, but the reality is that online journals are the future and PNAS Online contains more information than the print edition, such as supporting information, PNAS Plus research papers, and Letters to the Editor. Buku tik sd kelas 2 k 13. We are re-evaluating our page limits for both articles and supporting information, and are mindful of the fact that long manuscripts demand more time of the reviewers and cost more to produce, even when published online only.
Nearly 1,200 Academy members participated in the review process in 2015 by serving as an assigned editor, and we enlisted help from almost 1,000 guest editors when there were no Academy members available to handle the paper or who were expert in the topic of the work. However, all papers published in PNAS, whether Direct Submissions edited by an NAS member or guest editor, or Contributed by an Academy member, are approved by a member of the PNAS Editorial Board. We want to encourage more Academy members and members of the broad scientific community to become active in editing and reviewing for PNAS.
On occasion, when editorial disagreements arise or when questions are raised about conflicts of interest, scientific misconduct, retractions, reviewers, data availability, and other concerns, we consult with experts to establish guidelines. For example, we have

refined our policies on conflicts of interest, how to manage complex data availability concerns regarding sources like Facebook and Twitter, and how to handle studies involving human participants without compromising patient identity. In addition, we are looking at issues hindering the replication of published results caused by a lack of sufficient methodological information.
Because of the genomic era and increased emphasis on translational research and clinical trials, we are witnessing an increase of publications in these areas. Similarly, the boundaries between biological and physical sciences are fading rapidly. As PNAS moves into its next century, I would like to explore how we can increase our engagement in such areas, and I invite your comments and suggestions on our current and future plans.
