Catalyst: Discovery into Practice
Accelerating Adoption of Innovative Wine and Grape Research and
Technologies
DAVIS, CALIF., January 6, 2016….The highly respected American Journal of Enology and
Viticulture (AJEV) will soon have a sister publication that
picks up where AJEV leaves off. The American Society for Enology
and Viticulture (ASEV) is moving forward with plans to publish a
second journal, Catalyst: Discovery into
Practice, to bridge the gap between basic research and the
practical application of that science. The member-exclusive,
peer-reviewed online publication is slated for release in June
2016.
Catalyst: Discovery into Practice is a newly launched
journal from the American Society for Enology and Viticulture.
The American Journal of Enology and Viticulture (AJEV) is ASEV’s
flagship journal, publishing novel, foundational research in
areas underpinning grape and wine production. AJEV’s focus is
research, with a mission of “research to discovery.” Catalyst
will complete the continuum, with translation of research into
practice, and will focus on extending fundamental discoveries in
the scientific disciplines to sustain and advance winemaking and
grapegrowing.
