Frontiers

Frontiers is a leading community-driven open-access publisher that has attracted over 200,000 active leading researchers as authors and editors. Based on scalable in-house technology, Frontiers was the first to take scholarly publishing entirely online, make peer-review efficient and transparent, provide impact metrics for papers and researchers, and merge open-access publishing with a research network platform to catalyze research dissemination. The “Frontiers in” journal series has published 30’000 peer-reviewed articles across 53 open-access journals covering 400 academic disciplines and receiving 10 million monthly views. Frontiers is the 4th largest open-access publisher, including the world’s largest journal in Psychology and the largest open-access journals in Neuroscience, Physiology, Plant Science and has several journals competing to become the highest volume publishing journals in their respective categories. Frontiers for Young Minds, a philanthropic initiative by Frontiers, is a scientific journal for children that translates cutting-edge research articles for young people and involves them in the review process. It was featured a “Great Website for Kids” by the American Library Association. Loop is Frontiers' social network for academics. Loop aims to increase the visibility of researchers and readership for their articles. It is to date the only research network that integrates into academic journals and organizations, including the Frontiers journal series and on nature.com. Frontiers operates from Lausanne (HQ), Madrid, London and San Francisco, has received the ALPSP Award for Innovation in Publishing and collaborates with the Nature Publishing Group, Scientific American, Digital Science, OpenAire, Jacobs Foundation and other partners to advance the global Open Science movement.
