2. • Open access
• Open peer review
• Open methodology
• Open data
An open science publishing platform for life scientists:
Key aims:
• Unrestricted and immediate access
to new findings, incl. reanalyses,
confirmatory and negative results
(reduced waste/less publication bias)
• Transparency increases research integrity
• Better reproducibility through data sharing
3. • Peer review after publication (no ‘Editor’, but in-house pre-pub checks, incl. data inclusion)
• Fully transparent peer review
• “living articles”:
Versioning (also in PubMed) for revisions, corrections, updates
Post-publication peer review
4. • Source data underlying results must be included
• Data must be hosted in a stable open repository
(e.g. Figshare, Open Science Framework, Zenodo)
• Data must be clearly described and formatted
• Data are published under CC0 license
Mandatory data policy
