This is to say: scholarly communication is the very reason for being of those societies. As a result, mission-driven societies have the potential to develop, implement, and support new forms of and platforms for scholarly communication that focus on serving their members\u2019 needs even if those new forms and platforms don\u2019t fit conventional publishing value propositions. In this talk, I will explore the development of Humanities Commons as an example that might demonstrate the potential that online scholarly networks present both for researchers and for the societies to which they belong \u2014 not least in moving the future of open scholarly communication beyond the market-based logic of APCs and VC funding, and toward the creation of a sustainable alternative intellectual economy.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section

discovery of new medicines through open access research. He is also Professor at the University of Toronto and Visiting Professor at the University of Oxford. Trained as a protein biochemist at McGill University (with Peter Braun) and at Stanford University (with Roger Kornberg), his research interests include structural biology, host-virus interaction, functional proteomics and drug discovery.<\/p><p>In 1997, he and Dr. Cheryl Arrowsmith, contemporaneously with others around the world, launched a pilot project in structural genomics. The publication of their pilot project represented the first report of a large-scale effort in structural biology. Since 2000, Edwards and his colleagues have contributed to over 2,000 unique protein structures into the Protein Data Bank.<\/p><p>Edwards\u2019 other interests include open access and open innovation approaches to drug discovery, and science outreach.
