                <p>Bentham Science strives to promote excellence by publishing cutting-edge and insightful research in important new and emerging fields and making this new knowledge generated by world experts globally accessible.</p>
                <h4 class="h5">History</h4>
                <p>Founded in 1992, Bentham Science Publishers started scientific publications initially with two journals, <strong>Current Medicinal Chemistry</strong> and <strong>Protein and Peptide Letters</strong>. Bentham gradually expanded its operations with new journals in science, technology, and medicine to provide academic researchers and industrial professionals with the latest high-quality research information regarding important and emerging fields of science and technology. The company has now grown into a multinational company with employees in the UAE, USA, Netherlands, Spain, India, and China. We also outsource our publishing services to several countries, including the US, UK, India, China, and Pakistan.</p>
                <p>We currently publish more than 120 subscription/ hybrid journals in both electronic and printed formats and 38 Open Access journals. We have also published over 1300 books. Our journals and ebooks cover various disciplines in pharmaceutical research, engineering, technology, and social sciences. Furthermore, we became a member of COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) in 2014. Our journals are indexed by recognized indexing agencies.
