Under the terms of the “Austrian Open Access Publishing Framework Agreement”, the University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna (Vetmeduni) has formed an institutional agreement with Frontiers.

The Vetmeduni supports its researchers in making their research free and openly available. As part of this support, the agreement with Frontiers will enable Vetmeduni authors to publish open access at reduced costs. Eligible Vetmeduni authors who meet the institutional funding criteria benefit from a 10% membership discount in any Frontiers journal. Furthermore the invoicing process will be centrally administered by the Vetmeduni Open Access Team.

If you are an eligible Vetmeduni author, please select “University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna” in the payment information section (“Frontiers institutional members”) when submitting your article. Frontiers will verify your eligibility with the Vetmeduni Open Access Team. If confirmed, Frontiers will apply the discount on the article processing charges (APCs). Upon receipt, the Vetmeduni Open Access Team will forward the invoice to the corresponding author to arrange the payment by the respective department or clinic.
