Later this year I will be editing a special issue of the Journal of Chemical Information and Modeling (formerly J. Chem. Inf. Comput. Sci.) with a focus on collaboratories, virtual laboratories, grid computing and other e-science issues. Since April, I have been contacting teams in this field with a view to getting them to submit a manuscript, with a deadline of September 1, 2005. I am hoping for a publication date early in 2006; papers would appear on the Web from the end of 2005. The Web manuscript submission page is at https://paragon.acs.org/paragon/index.jsp. It is important that authors state in their cover letter that the paper is for my focus issue on e-science. Manuscripts will be peer reviewed, of course, so I cannot promise publication: only contributions that meet the usual standards of JCIM will be accepted.

I would appreciate any help you can give me in publicizing this.
