Libertas Academica is recruiting editorial board members for two forthcoming OA journals: Oncogenomics and Biomarker Insights. Pass the word to colleagues who might be interested.
The site says nothing about Oncogenomics, but already has a web site for Biomarker Insights. Excerpt:
Biomarker Insights is a peer-reviewed, open-access research journal where those engaged in biomarker research can turn for rapid communication of the latest advances in the application of biomarkers toward the discovery of new knowledge, and toward the clinical translation of that knowledge to increase the efficacy of practicing clinicians....The speed of reporting advances in biomarkers, the open access model, and the highest editorial standards with which Biomarker Insights is produced will have the combined effect of maximizing the benefit to the advance of the field.

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
I recommend the OA tracking project (OATP) as the best way to stay on top of new OA developments. You can read the OATP feed on a blog-like web page or subscribe to it by RSS, email, or Twitter. You can also help build the feed by tagging new developments you encounter.
