Journal of Food Science

Since 1936, The Journal of Food Science (JFS) has been IFT's premier science journal, containing peer-reviewed reports of original research and critical reviews of all aspects of food science. Today it publishes more than 500 papers a year -- over 3,000 pages of original research and scientific reviews.

Coming in 2012: More Frequent Journal of Food Science Content

Beginning in January 2012, the Journal of Food Science will publish monthly online issues (12 issues/year), an increase from 9 issues per year. In response to declining print subscriptions and an increasing volume of content, the journal will publish quarterly print issues (4 issues/year), which will include all content published in the 3 monthly issues within each quarter.

The print and online publications will continue to be identical in content through the volume year, and will differ only in frequency. Print-only JFS subscribers who subscribe or renew in 2011 will automatically be converted in 2012 to Print + Online subscriptions, to ensure that they will continue to have access to JFS research as soon as it is published. As of January 1, 2012, new or renewing subscribers will have the option to receive JFS Online-only or Print + Online.

We hope that you share our enthusiasm about these exciting changes. For more information, please contact the Journal Editorial Office at jfs@ift.org.
