[Air-L] Be part of the article collection on Big Data Ethics

[Daniel Thomas]

Would you like to submit an article to an interdisciplinary article
collection on "Big Data Ethics"?

In collaboration with the journals (Frontiers in) Genetics,
Pharmacology, Sociology, ICT, and Digital Humanities, we are organizing
an interdisciplinary article collection on "Big Data Ethics" (Guest
Editors: Dov Greenbaum, Daniel R. Thomas).  The aim of this project is
to bring together international experts to provide a comprehensive view
of this topic. Would you like to participate as a contributing author?

Manuscripts will be peer-reviewed by experts in the relevant field and,
if accepted for publication, will be free to access for all readers, and
indexed in relevant repositories.

This interdisciplinary collection is cross-listed across several
journals and so you will need to submit your article via the journal
relevant to your field so that your article is in scope of both the
collection and the journal.

The abstract submission deadline is 30th March but you do not have to
submit an abstract in advance, this is so that we can tell you if your
article seems to be in scope before you go to the trouble of writing it.
It will also help us ensure we get a balance of articles across
different disciplines by allowing us to spot any gaps. The manuscript
deadline is 31 August 2018 but you can submit before then and the review
and publication process will begin immediately. We aim to complete the
review process within 30 days and the journal average of time from
submission to publication is 90 days.

Frontiers is owned by the Nature publishing group and is not a scam
publisher.

Below my signature you will find some additional information. If you
have any questions on the project, please let me know.

I look forward to your reply.
