[DIYbio] Re: Publication


A relatively low-cost alternative could be PeerJ (https://peerj.com), which just started publishing.
According to their site, for a $99 lifetime subscription fee you can publish one article per year, or unlimited publications for $299.
They only accept "research articles" (not reviews, etc.), and peer-reviewer comments are published alongside the article. Also, 


"PeerJ
evaluates articles based only on an objective determination of scientific and methodological soundness, not on subjective determinations of 'impact,' 'novelty' or 'interest'.

For what it's worth, one of the co-founder was previously running PLOS One. They also just launched a preprint service.

Hi,

has the publication of DIYbio results been a topic on this list ?
As most of you know, scientists usually write and try to publish
an article in a scientific journal about interesting findings...

I just came across this one:
It seems, you don't need to be a "professional" scientist to
submit an article or data there.

Is anybody aware of a journal, dedicated to the DIYbio community ?
Where everybody can submit their experiences and findings,
which presents interesting experiments to do at home, presents
news having an impact on the community etc.etc. ... ?

Cheers, Matthias
