For the past five years, you have enjoyed reading articles on cutting-edge research young-earth scientists are doing from around the world. But now, New Creation is also publishing its very own research journal: New Creation Studies! This publication is a professional, open-access peer-review journal.
What makes New Creation Studies different from our regular blog articles is that it is peer-reviewed. We already often have scientists review our articles before publication. But peer-review is a very specific process. This is where researchers create a technical paper detailing the data, methods, results, and conclusions of their research program. This paper is sent to the editor. The editor arranges other experts in the field relevant to the paper to critique it. If the reviewers find the paper to be acceptable, the editor will set it for publication in the journal. New Creation Studies will also engage in this practice. However, it will be in a somewhat different way than regular peer-review journals. Biologist Dr. Todd Wood calls this new approach “community review.”
So while the New Creation blog usually distills already-existent research into a form more digestible for a general audience, New Creation Studies is the tip of the cutting edge, presenting new, hot-off-the-press research.
The first issue for New Creation Studies is now available for you to read on our website! You can either access it through the sidebar on the right, or by clicking this direct link.
