The American Society for Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics (ASCPT) and Nature Publishing Group are pleased to announce the upcoming launch of a brand new publication: CPT: Pharmacometrics & Systems Pharmacology.

Piet van der Graaf, PhD, PharmD, Pfizer, will serve as editor-in-chief of CPT:PSP. The following individuals have been appointed as Associate Editors: Lena Friberg, PhD, Uppsala University; Steve Duffull, PhD, University of Otago; France Mentré, MD, PhD, Université Paris Diderot; Marc Gastonguay, PhD, Metrum Research Group; Paolo Vicini, PhD, Pfizer Global Research and Development; Douglas Lauffenburger, PhD, Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Amin Rostami, PharmD, PhD, University of Manchester; and Don Mager, PharmD, PhD, University at Buffalo, SUNY.

This group of editors represents and reflects the scientific and demographic diversity of CPT:PSP. Collectively, the editorial leadership of CPT:PSP will be advocates for the journal, responsible for selecting high-quality content for publication.

CPT:PSP, which is owned by ASCPT, and is an official journal of the American Society of Pharmacometrics (ASoP), will be published as an online-only, Open Access journal by Nature Publishing Group (NPG) and will provide a unique international forum for scientists in the pharmacometrics and systems pharmacology space. CPT: Pharmacometrics & Systems Pharmacology will publish advances in quantitative methods as applied in pharmacology, physiology, and therapeutics in humans with a common focus on the application of these two areas on drug discovery and development.

Together, the CPT: Pharmacometrics & Systems Pharmacology editorial leadership, ASCPT, ASoP, and NPG look to further define and shape the fields of pharmacometrics and systems pharmacology as applied to drug development.

CPT:PSP will officially launch in the Summer of 2012 with the online submission site opening on May 21 and the first issue expected to publish in the Fall. As an Open Access journal, all CPT:PSP content will be made freely available worldwide immediately upon publication.

Additional information on CPT:PSP, including the journal’s Aims and Scope, is available at www.nature.com/psp.
