TU Dresden partnership

Technische Universität Dresden (TU Dresden) supports its researchers in making their research more widely available.

This agreement will further encourage Technische Universität Dresden 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.

Discover how we publish at Frontiers. If you’re ready to publish, check out our author guidelines for everything you need to know about the submission process, from choosing a journal to preparing your manuscript.

Are you a researcher at Technische Universität Dresden?

Frontiers works with research institutions, libraries, consortia and funders to improve support for researchers publishing open access. We work to:

• reduce administrative time for authors and institutions by centralizing communications and streamlining submission and payment workflows.

• release authors from some/all responsibility for article publishing charges (APCs) - contact your institution or librarian for full details.

• simplify the submissions process to ensure authors are able to submit their work quickly and easily with step-by-step support.

Are you eligible?

To be eligible under the partnership, you need to ensure:

• The paying corresponding author is affiliated with TU Dresden at the time of acceptance of the manuscript. The corresponding author must indicate their affiliation in the publication in accordance with the Publication Guideline of TU Dresden: Publication Guideline of TU Dresden — Research & Transfer — TU Dresden (tu-dresden.de)

• The corresponding author should submit using their university-/university hospital-affiliated email address

• Publications by visiting researchers and members of affiliated institutes cannot be funded: Affiliated Institutes — Cooperation — TU Dresden (tu-dresden.de)

• Authors whose research have been partly or entirely in the context of a third-party funded project are generally expected to include in the publishing article a specific wording of the funding body in the funding acknowledgments. Clear instructions on this can be found in the funding institutions' guidelines.

For more information, please get in touch with your institution's open access team.

The power of open access

As one of the world's leading open access publishers, we believe in the transformative power of open science. Articles published with us are free and permanently accessible worldwide - so anyone can benefit from the discoveries, not just a selection of researchers.

• Your article will be freely and permanently available immediately after publication, ensuring maximum reach, impact, and visibility.

• More scientists can read the results of your research, including the wider public unable to access the information because they lack a subscription.

• Open access improves the quality of your research through open, transparent, and reproducible practices made available to a global audience.

Not an affiliated author?

We collaborate with hundreds of institutions across the world. If you want to join them, tell your librarian about Frontiers institutional plans - just submit our recommendation form.
