Staying Current: Omics Journals Online (Omics Series, 20)
The omics fields have become real leaders in the idea of open access. Researchers in these cutting edge fields have found that rapid ready access to the newest research benefits them all. There is a perhaps surprising number of journals providing high quality research either completely freely online or following various models. A publication model found in omics journals that is less common among other disciplines, in my personal experience, is that of having free access for 30 days, after which access is restricted to subscribers.
Today's blog entry includes a selection of omics journals available free online, followed by selections of electronic journals available to the University of Michigan community. Last but not least, we include a structured web search for those who would like to see some of the journals we did not include today.
