The journals Nature and Science are where some of the highest quality research is showcased to the world.
Here, UWA researchers promote research excellence through their valuable contribution to these highly prestigious journals.
Nature Journal
First published in 1869, Nature is the world’s leading multidisciplinary science journal. Nature publishes the finest peer-reviewed research that drives ground-breaking discovery, and is read by thought-leaders and decision-makers around the world.
Science Journal
Science has been at the center of important scientific discovery since its founding in 1880—with seed money from Thomas Edison. Today, Science continues to publish the very best in research across the sciences, with articles that consistently rank among the most cited in the world.
