American Society for Cell Biology & Open Access

The American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB), has announced its “Position on Public Access to Scientific Literature,” calling for free public access to federally funded research within six months of publication. ASCB is a non-profit scientific society with a membership over 1100 and it also publishes high-impact monthly journals like Molecular Biology of the Cell.
ASCB has provided free access after a two-month embargo since 2001 and has experienced no adverse impact on its finances.
