The AXA Research Fund has announced the launch of its own publishing hub with F1000, part of Taylor & Francis. The hub is hosted on F1000’s own platform, F1000Research, and adopts its pioneering approach to open research publishing.
Supporting the AXA Research Fund’s purpose to accelerate science, the AXA Research Fund Gateway will enable all research outputs to be published and will combine the benefits of pre-printing with mechanisms to assure quality and transparency. These include invited and open post-publication peer review, article versioning, archiving, and indexing. The Gateway also endorses the FAIR Data Principles, enabling authors to share their underlying data and supporting materials, further accelerating the pace of discovery, providing credit and recognition for all contributors, and ultimately improving public trust in research.
The AXA Research Fund Gateway provides a dedicated space for researchers currently or previously funded by the AXA Research Fund to publish any outputs from their research including Research Articles, Reviews, Case Reports, Study Protocols, Software Tool Articles, Data Notes, as well as documents, posters, and slides. The Gateway welcomes research around new technologies with potential applications in three key areas: Environment, Health, and Socioeconomics.
The AXA Research Fund Gateway is now open for submissions: https://f1000research.com/gateways/axaresearchfund/for-authors/publish-your-research. All AXA-funded researchers are eligible to publish on the Gateway. At least one author on a submitted article must be a fellow of the AXA Research Fund and may be asked on submission to confirm their affiliation. All published articles must be in relation to the author’s AXA-funded project, and they must be published in English.
