Who we are
Open Science is what we are!
We are a jung editorial which skilfully combine Open Science with the unique Blockchain technology. All our articles are referenced on the Blockchain and stored on the distributed file system IPFS. This way we make all data authentic, permanent and forgery-proof.
Moringa Science Publishing represents a new way of publishing where the principles of Open Science are applied. Open Access is one of our core principles, on top of that we make it possible to publish high-quality research across the entire range of science through:
Open review process
Secured availability online (min. 10 years) (*)
Seal of authenticity with Blockchain
Easy to use, no requirement of special styles for initial submission
Article formats for printing and online viewing
Journals for all parts of the science process, also including negative results, experiment repetition attempts and overview articles
(*) starting with publication and subject to existence of Moringa SP. We work with public libraries to secure longer availability.
Core Principles
- Open Review Process – We believe that the review process should be open by default. That means that the editor decision and the pre-publication expert reviews will be published regardless of whether the article is published or rejected. This way we honour the work of the reviewers. Authors can remain anonymous in case of a rejection.
- All Research Is Important – History is full of “silly” ideas that later changed our philosophy of life. We believe that no matter how “silly” something appears at first glance, as long as the research has been done properly, it deserves to be published for everyone’s benefits.
- Secured Availability – Future generations need to know and learn from history. Preservation of information is very important for the advancement of knowledge.
- Authenticity And Transparency – All publications are referenced with cryptographic hashes and time-stamped on a distributed immutable public ledger, also known as “Blockchain”. In this way the authorship, publication date and authenticity of all our publications can be easily verified.
Our Passion, Name and Team
We believe that the replicability of research is very important because reproducibility is a way to validate, to give quality and in Moringa SP we are using the technology to make it happen.
By making research innovations easier and more accessible, we are helping to create a future with greater opportunities and equality for all.
Why Moringa:
to die is called “morir” in Spanish. “Inga” is the Finnish goddess of fertility. For us fertility also means renewal.
The seeds of the moringa tree purify polluted water and make it drinkable.
So we want to clean and renew science with our project. Maybe dying before is necessary.
