Publishers John Wiley & Sons Enter Into An Agreement With NASPGHAN And AASLD

Global publisher John Wiley & Sons, Inc., confirms their plans to go into a partnership with NASPGHAN and AASLD for providing subscriptions of their journal.

International publisher John Wiley & Sons, Inc., had announced on the 6th of September their plans of a new agreement with the North American Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (NASPGHAN) and the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD).

Announcing that under this agreement they would provide complimentary subscriptions of the journal Hepatology to all NASPGHAN fellows, they explained that Wiley & Co publishes 'Hepatology', which is the official journal of AASLD on behalf of the Association. The journal is one of the leading worldwide journals that publish original, peer-reviewed articles pertaining to all aspects of liver, its structure, function, and disease.

"As chair of the AASLD Publications Committee, I am pleased that our publisher, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. is providing Hepatology without charge to trainees in Paediatric Gastroenterology/Hepatology," said William Balistreri, M.D. "Hepatology is the premier journal in the field and access to the important basic and translational research published in its pages will stimulate young investigators and we hope lead to the improved care of children with hepatobiliary disease."

"NASPGHAN welcomes this partnership with AASLD and Wiley and appreciates the generous support extended to the training and educating of our next generation of paediatric gastroenterologist," said Philip M. Sherman, M.D., and President of NASPGHAN.
