Jean-Claude Bradley appointed co-Editor-in-Chief at Chemistry Central Journal
We are extremely pleased to announce the appointment of Jean-Claude Bradley as a co-Editor-in-Chief for Chemistry Central Journal.
Jean-Claude Bradley is an Associate Professor of Chemistry and E-Learning Coordinator for the College of Arts and Sciences at Drexel University, Philadelphia. He leads the UsefulChem project, a synthetic organic chemistry initiative started in the summer of 2005 to make the scientific process as transparent as possible by publishing all research work in real time to a collection of public blogs, wikis and other web pages. Jean-Claude coined the term Open Notebook Science to distinguish this approach from other more restricted forms of Open Science. In 2008 he created the Open Notebook Science Solubility Challenge to crowdsource the measurement of non-aqueous solubility.
Jean-Claude teaches undergraduate organic chemistry courses with most content freely available on public blogs, wikis, games, Second Life and audio and video podcasts. He has a Ph.D. in organic chemistry, and has published articles and obtained patents in the areas of synthetic and mechanistic chemistry, gene therapy, nanotechnology and scientific knowledge management.
Given Jean-Claude's experience and involvement in open science initiatives, we are delighted to have him on board to continue to take Chemistry Central Journal forward.
