Open Access Information
Welcome to the Open Access Information page of Human Biology Journal, dedicated to promoting transparency and accessibility in the field of human biology research. We are committed to the principles of open access, which aim to make scientific knowledge freely available to researchers, scholars, and the public.
What is Open Access?
Open access refers to the practice of providing free, unrestricted access to research articles and scholarly content online. This model enables the global dissemination of knowledge, fostering collaboration and innovation across diverse academic communities.
Our Commitment to Open Access
We believe that open access is essential to the advancement of human biology research. We are committed to the following principles:
- Immediate Accessibility: All our research articles are freely accessible online, ensuring that the latest findings in human biology are readily available to a global audience.
- Author Retention of Copyright: We support authors by allowing them to retain copyright of their work, promoting wider sharing and reuse of their research.
- Peer-Reviewed Quality: Our open access articles undergo the same rigorous peer-review process as traditional subscription-based journals to maintain high scientific standards.
- Diversity and Inclusivity: We are committed to promoting diversity and inclusivity in research. We actively encourage submissions from authors worldwide and from underrepresented backgrounds.
