Strengthening publishing integrity: industry collaboration and new guidelines for guest-edited collections

Publishing research within thematic collections- such as special issues, research topics, and guest-edited volumes- has become an integral part of scholarly communication. These formats offer established benefits: they support community building, increase the visibility and impact of research, and allow for deeper exploration of emerging or interdisciplinary topics - accelerating discussion and discovery. At Frontiers, Research Topics are our model for these article collections. Defined and led by expert researchers, they unite global communities around a common theme and ensure the outcomes are openly available. This approach not only supports scientific progress but also ensures that new knowledge can be rapidly translated into real-world change.
