Autonomous University of Barcelona has formed an institutional membership agreement for open access publishing with Frontiers.

This institutional agreement means that eligible Autonomous University of Barcelona researchers may publish in any Frontiers journal at no cost to them and with a simplified process. Articles may benefit from a 10% membership discount.

Autonomous University of Barcelona Library Service supports its researchers in making their research more widely available. This agreement will further encourage Autonomous University of Barcelona researchers to publish open access, increasing the volume of research openly available. While this reduces costs for the researcher, it also benefits the wider research community and the public at large.

For more information on Frontiers’ institutional agreements please visit our institutional memberships page or contact institutions@frontiersin.org to discuss the possibilities for your own organization.

Information for researchers

If you are an Autonomous University of Barcelona researcher, please select Autonomous University of Barcelona in the payment information section (“Frontiers institutional members”) when submitting your article.
