Accessing our research | Crick

"A key pillar of our founders'  funding is that we make all of our research freely available.

We've supported this commitment through our policies and practices:

• We accept preprints as citations in employment applications and group leader reviews.
• We signed the Hague Declaration on Knowledge Discovery in the Digital Age to help remove barriers to content mining. 
• We signed the Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA) to help improve how the outputs of scholarly research are evaluated. 
• We apply a non-exclusive, irrevocable, worldwide CC-BY license on all author accepted manuscripts describing work carried out at the Francis Crick Institute. This allows authors to share the manuscript with colleagues, use it in teaching and deposit it in repositories...."
