350 years of scientific publishing

During 2015 we celebrated the 350th anniversary of Philosophical Transactions, the world's first science journal.

Philosophical Transactions, first published in 1665, pioneered the concepts of scientific priority and peer review which, together with archiving and dissemination, provide the model for almost 30,000 scientific journals today.

We marked the anniversary with a programme of activities and events.
