INABIO joins the AIMs program, providing unlimited, APC-free publishing for their authors to ensure their research is made openly available
We are excited to welcome our first South American member to the AIMs program. Ecuador’s Instituto Nacional de Biodiversidad – INABIO – has taken out a PeerJ Membership until the end of the 2025, giving their authors an option to publish in any PeerJ journal without having to pay any publication fees. The Membership ensures that the vital research INABIO carries out can be made openly available to biodiversity researchers in Ecuador and around the world.
INABIO-affiliated authors should complete this short form before submitting, which will allow INABIO staff to verify their eligibility.
INABIO plans, promotes, coordinates and implements research processes related to the field of biodiversity and conservation according to existing environmental policies and applicable legislation. The Institute, under the Ministry of Environment, is responsible for generating knowledge and developing science, technology and innovation that requires the Ecuadorian State to guarantee the conservation of its natural heritage.
INABIO authors can find out more on their PeerJ page, or by watching the video below.
A PeerJ Annual Institutional Membership (AIM) provides unlimited, frictionless OA publishing for institutional partners and their faculty. Simple to manage, easy to purchase and providing great cost saving opportunities, researchers will never have to worry about having to pay an APC, and librarians can say goodbye to the administrative overhead of dealing with payments on an article by article basis.
Institutions who are interested in AIMs should contact PeerJ.
