Wiley will launch eight new Advanced journals by the end of 2026-with more planned over the next several years-offering researchers in life, health and social sciences high-impact venues to publish their work.
HOBOKEN, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Wiley (NYSE: WLY), a global leader in authoritative content and research intelligence for the advancement of scientific discovery, innovation and learning, today announced it will significantly expand the Advanced Portfolio into life, health, and social sciences disciplines, with plans to launch eight new journals by the end of 2026 and more to follow over the next several years.
This expansion of the Advanced Portfolio-a collection of scientific journals currently encompassing more than 25 high-impact titles-is designed to empower scientists, making publishing easier for researchers through a streamlined, collaborative approach. It also reflects Wiley's commitment to accelerate science that addresses humanity's most pressing challenges across a wide range of disciplines.
Among the first new journals to launch will be Advanced Oncology, which opens for submissions next month. In support of this research community, Wiley's Advanced Portfolio is co-sponsoring the MD Anderson Cancer and Neuroscience Symposium taking place this week, February 19 and 20, in Houston, bringing together leading researchers to advance critical conversations that will shape the future of health and life sciences.
Other new titles-including journals spanning diverse fields at the intersection of human health, neuroscience, technology, and society-will be announced soon.
The Advanced Portfolio is anchored by flagship interdisciplinary journal Advanced Science and the world-renowned Advanced Materials. Its distinctive editorial approach-built on close collaboration between authors and editors-has earned the trust of the materials science community for more than three decades. The expansion enables researchers across the spectrum of sciences to have access to the same trusted, high-impact publishing experience.
With transparent production-and soon a greater array of journal options-the portfolio is designed to deliver premier service to authors. They submit their work once, and professional editors work across journals to find the best fit-eliminating unnecessary resubmission and reformatting cycles.
"For more than 35 years, the Advanced brand has earned researchers' trust through rigorous standards and collaborative partnerships," said Allyn Molina, group vice president of publishing development at Wiley. "Researchers have been telling us they need more prestigious yet accessible venues for their breakthrough work, and we listened; this expansion is our answer-launching premium options across every field of science."
This growth accelerates the Advanced Portfolio's evolution from its origin as a materials science specialist into a comprehensive, multidisciplinary journal portfolio spanning the physical, life, health, and social sciences. Two Advanced journals focused on AI-Advanced Intelligent Discovery and Advanced Robotics Research-were added last year, and Advanced Chemical Engineering opened to submissions last month with immediate interest.
"Our decades-long legacy in the materials sciences has taught us the power of rigorous editorial standards combined with genuine collaboration," said Kirsten Severing, editor-in-chief of Advanced Science. "We're applying those same principles-quality, integrity, and interdisciplinary thinking-to these new fields. The goal is to make the Advanced Portfolio a natural home for researchers whose work crosses traditional boundaries."
