[CoDeP] the Bentham case

[Jorge Miguel Streb]

Thomas,

As Marco points out, this is the only journal related to business in the whole Bentham collection.

In their aims and scope, they make it clear that they are interesed in technology transfer and entrepreneurship within biomedical research:

"Technology Transfer and Entrepreneurship" (TTE) publishes definitive review articles including case histories covering abroad range of topics that underlie the business of biomedical research, specifically translating basic scientific discoveries into commercial opportunities. This includes understanding of the technology transfer process and entrepreneurship in academia, the biotechnology andpharmaceutical industries; directed towards economic development, better healthcare, and long-term job creation. The journal scope includes economic insights on how technology is transferred within the bioscience and healthcare industries, and the underlying entrepreneurship that embodies scientific and biomedical research.

What counts as economic research for physicians might look quite different from what counts as economic research in economics. Since the members of board are legitimate, I guess it could be listed.

Kind regards,

Jorge

> There seems very little that has to do with Economics, or RePEc.At the same time, I wonder whether it would not be a good idea to have some short statement about CoDeP posted somewhere on RePEc, so that if we write to someone asking for information we can point him/her to this statement.Best, marco.On 9 Dec 2016, at 13:04, Thomas Krichel <krichel at openlib.org> wrote: We got two requests from Bentham. They are a known bad publisher. So we have a case on our hands even though we don't have a constitution yet. I selected one person to check whether she knows she is on the editorial board. Plesae if somebody else could do other editorial board checks, especially if the journals is in something at least vaguely related to economics. Just find the person's address, send a mail with copy here, and let's wait for replies.----- Forwarded message from Rehana Raza <rehana at benthamopen.com> -----From: Rehana Raza <rehana at benthamopen.com>To: repec at repec.orgSubject: RE: RePEc (Research Pap
