Publication

A publication strategy involves planning where and how to publish research findings, determining the target audience, and figuring out how to achieve the greatest possible impact on the scientific community and society, as well as how to maximize the benefits for the researcher’s career.

Traditionally, access to academic journals was only available through subscription. In recent years, open access and hybrid publishing models have become available, which provide access to publications upon payment of an Article Processing Charge (APC). Open access publishing allows research results to be freely found online; they can be read, downloaded, and used without the licensing restrictions that typically apply to published works.
