Why are we MD types so closed?

Search for “ontology bioinformatics” in PubMed

Then search for “protein simulation”

The former yields 10 open access hits on the first page, the latter just 1. Makes me want to weep. Perhaps the PLoS people need to come up with PLoS Structure & Function, or PLoS Biophysics

    Now that they have ONE I don’t know if they will open new journals any time soon :) . More likely they will create portals based on the content in PLoS ONE. You can always try to create a journal in BioMed Central.
