« Aims and scope
Emergent Scientist is an open access international scientific journal dedicated to a student authorship and readership, and to lesser extent to teachers and researchers.

The idea of expanding this chance to any student willing to learn about scientific publication quickly emerged, and gave birth to EmSci. (…) »
