ranslating Life Sciences Innovation: SLAS Technology explores ways in which scientists adapt advancements in technology for scientific exploration and experimentation.

SLAS Technology emphasizes scientific and technical advances that enable and improve life sciences research and development; drug-delivery; diagnostics; biomedical and molecular imaging; and personalized and precision medicine. This includes high-throughput and other laboratory automation technologies; micro/nanotechnologies; analytical, separation and quantitative techniques; synthetic chemistry and biology; informatics (data analysis, statistics, bio, genomic and chemoinformatics); and more.

SLAS Technology is of particular interest to those involved in automation, bioengineering, micro- and nanotechnology, nanomedicine, microfluidics, 3D printing, biotechnology, bioinformatics, analytical chemistry, biomedical optics, information technology, artificial intelligence, spectroscopy, clinical diagnostics, pharmacogenomics, molecular biology and biomedical sciences.

SLAS Technology is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and was published previously (1996-2016) as the Journal of Laboratory Automation (JALA).

SLEEP is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific and medical journal featuring a wide spectrum of sleep-related research. The journal is the official publication of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies, LLC (APSS), a joint venture of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and the Sleep Research Society.The primary audiences are clinicians and research professionals specializing in sleep-related disorders. SLEEP publishes 12 regular issues annually, along with a digital supplement featuring abstracts presented at the yearly SLEEP Meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies. Subscribers have access to all new and archived issued online. All articles are available to the public free of charge six months after publication.Sleep specialists treat a broad spectrum of disorders, categorized into primary dysfunction of the neural mechanisms of sleep and arousal, pathologies uniquely related to sleep and disturbances of sleep associated with behavioral or psychiatric syndromes. Experts come from a variety of primary backgrounds, including pulmonology, neurology, psychiatry, psychology, otolaryngology, and dentistry.SLEEP publishes original findings and analysis related to sleep disorders, medical dysfunctions during sleep, clinical investigations, therapeutic trials, physiologic events, anatomic structures and molecular components underlying normal and abnormal sleep, psychological and psychophysiologic research, and the pharmacology of sleep.

SN Business & Economics (ISSN: 2662-9399) is a multi- and interdisciplinary journal serving all areas of Business & Management, Economics, and Finance.

The journal’s scope is inclusive: it is open to theoretical, empirical, and policy perspectives and encourages the submission of original research, review articles, case studies and replication studies.

SN Comprehensive Clinical Medicine is a peer reviewed journal that publishes original research in all disciplines of clinical medicine and their subspecialties.  SN CCM aims to provide a global forum for the discussion of all aspects of Imaging, Surgical and Medical studies related to diagnosis, treatment and management.  In addition, SN CCM serves the international medical community for the dissemination of information connecting research, theory and practice in these fields.

SN Comprehensive Clinical Medicine welcomes submissions from a wide range of medical fields from basic and translational research to clinical studies, methodologies, health care delivery and curriculum development.  SN CCM publishes papers in the following categories:  
Original Research, Brief Communications, Case Reports, Commentaries and Reviews.

All papers are evaluated on the basis of scientific content.  Submissions are first screened for research and publication ethics prior to single-blind peer review, where the reviewers are aware of the names and affiliations of the authors, but the reviewer reports provided to authors are anonymous. Reviewers are asked to focus on the validity of the data and conclusions presented.  SN CCM reviews each submission from a ‘sound science’ perspective.

In addition to direct submissions, SN Comprehensive Clinical Medicine welcomes papers that have been referred from Springer Nature’s prestigious clinical medicine journal portfolio.

SN Computer Science is a broad-based, peer reviewed journal that publishes original research in all the disciplines of computer science including various inter-disciplinary aspects.
