JRCD is now an open‑access journal and also accepts high‑quality papers beyond the field of rare cardiovascular diseases and disorders | Journal of Rare Cardiovascular Diseases

We would like to inform our readers, authors, reviewers, and other collaborators, that according to our recent JRCD Editorial Team meeting, several significant changes were introduced. Firstly, JRCD moves from being a  free‑access to an open‑access journal. The open access will concern all papers published in JRCD since 2016 (before introduction of this change) and will mean that JRCD papers may be distributed under the publisher’s own license, which is in accordance with the Budapest Open Access Initiative (BOAI) definition of open access (for details see JRCD website).
