QSAR & Combinatorial Science
The New ESCS Journal
Combinatorial Science is a new Journal published by Wiley-VCH
It will attempt to stimulate publication across the different fields
that utilize combinatorial approach to unravel the secrets of Nature
and develop new materials to benefit mankind. The Journal will
publish a mixture of reviews and full papers on topics ranging from
combinatorial biology, biochemistry, chemistry, material and physical
sciences. Wiley-VCH and the Editor in Chief of the Journal, Jean
Martinez (Université Montpellier I - Faculté de Pharmacie - 15 Av.
Charles Flahault BP 14 491, 34093 Montpellier Cedex 5, France Email:
[email protected]) invites all participants
in EUROCOMBI 2 to submit papers on the work presented to the
Journal, the official organ of ESCS. The Journal can publish information
for the society such as meeting abstracts. Please consider this journal
a valuable asset to you and colleagues in the field and a primary
source of important scientific information.
