Berlin (Germany) and London (England), 15 January, 2026 – ResearchGate, the professional network for researchers, and Premier Science, an independent publisher of open access journals, today announced a new Journal Home partnership.

Launched in 2024, Premier Science is an independent publisher whose mission is accelerating scientific discovery, communication, and innovation. It offers science journals for everyone, from students and early career researchers to mid-career scientists, those running established labs, physicians, and managers. Using advanced tools like the Eworkflow system, it focuses on publishing with efficiency and quality.

Through Journal Home, the majority of Premier Science journals will now benefit from increased visibility, readership, and impact, building the profile and engagement with these titles through:

• Continuous engagement with researchers throughout the research and publishing cycle, complementing Premier Science’s author-centric workflows and supporting opportunities for high-quality submissions.
• Expanded global reach and discoverability for all Premier Science content on the ResearchGate platform, increasing readership, usage, and visibility.

“Our Journal Home partnership with ResearchGate reflects our commitment to unparalleled reach, visibility, and the acceleration of discovery. It increases the scale of our reach and combines this with unique insights on the researchers consuming our open access content. That will help accelerate our development,” said Dr Riaz Agha, Publisher, Premier Science. “With its expansive, researcher-focused platform, Journal Home provides an outstanding foundation for the continued growth of our readership and reinforces to prospective authors that the Premier Science portfolio is home to leading research across every scientific discipline.”
