Needham, Massachusetts & Stanford, California - The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, Inc, is pleased to announce a renewed partnership with Stanford University's HighWire Press, as host to the new monthly JBJS Reviews online journal, launching this autumn.

"We are looking forward to working with the team at HighWire on this exciting new project," said Kent Anderson, CEO and Publisher of the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (JBJS). "The flexible interfaces and advertising potential of the Drupal framework on HighWire's Open Platform are exactly what we were seeking for this innovative new journal."

As a continuously published online journal, JBJS Reviews will provide orthopedic surgeons around the world with valuable perspectives on surgical practice and the latest advances in the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal disease. This new journal showcases the highest-quality evidence and compelling clinical information from the most experienced experts, and will include integrated Continuing Medical Education (CME).
