American Physiological Society to Launch Subscribe to Open Model for Research Journals | American Physiological Society

"The American Physiological Society (APS), a nonprofit organization that publishes 16 scientific journals highlighting critical advances in physiology and related fields, announces a strategic shift to a Subscribe to Open (S2O) publishing model. As part of its mission to advance scientific discovery, understand life and improve health, APS is working closely with the library community to implement this open access publishing model, beginning in 2025, for 10 of the Society’s primary research journals.

APS is committed to championing physiology by extending the discipline’s reach worldwide. Partnering with the community to adopt S2O will enable the Society to facilitate a transition to open access publishing without adding article processing charges (APCs). APS members and authors will have a home to publish their work using an approach compliant with funder policies worldwide. S2O benefits the research community by providing immediate access to scientific advances and enabling communication to the broadest audience in a fair and sustainable manner...."
