Null Scientific is the world’s first peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated exclusively to publishing negative results, null findings, and unexpected data across all scientific disciplines. Traditionally, scientific publishing favours positive and confirmatory results, leaving a vast amount of valuable research unpublished when results do not align with initial hypotheses. We believe that such findings are critical for scientific transparency, reproducibility, and progress.

At Null Scientific, we provide a rigorous, ethical, and high-quality platform for researchers to share studies that refine methodologies, challenge existing knowledge, and contribute to a more complete and unbiased scientific record.

 

Scope of Null Scientific

Null Scientific is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to publishing negative results, null findings, and unexpected data across all scientific disciplines. We believe that every piece of research, whether it supports or challenges existing knowledge, contributes to the advancement of science. Our mission is to promote transparency, reproducibility, and the sharing of data that often remains unpublished in traditional journals.

We welcome submissions from researchers across a wide range of fields, including but not limited to:

• Biology and Life Sciences
• Physics and Chemistry
• Medicine and Health Sciences
• Engineering and Technology
• Environmental Studies

Our journal focuses on short communications, case reports, data notes, and reviews of null findings, providing a platform to publish studies that reveal critical insights, methods, or results that do not meet the expectations of positive outcomes. In doing so, we aim to reduce publication bias and enhance the scientific community's understanding of the complete research process, including studies with null or negative results.

By embracing the full spectrum of scientific inquiry, we strive to foster a more inclusive, transparent, and responsible research environment. We encourage submissions that report findings from any stage of the research process, provided they contribute meaningful insights and data.

 

Content Preservation

All articles published in Null Scientific are preserved through the PKP Preservation Network (PKP PN) to ensure long-term access and availability. This partnership helps safeguard the integrity and accessibility of our content, ensuring that it remains available to researchers and the public for future reference.
