Duration: 2024
The Nature Publishing Group has been part of Springer Nature for several years. Under a DEAL agreement with the publishing group, TUM members already enjoy special publishing conditions for Gold Open Access journals, including the so-called "Nature branded journals". However, hybrid journals from the Nature portfolio were covered by this contract. To bridge this gap, we have now finalized an additional Publish & Read contract, providing TUM members the following advantages:
- Reading Access
TUM members have access rights to the entire portfolio of Nature branded journals.
- Open Access Publishing
Starting in 2024, as a corresponding author affiliated with TUM, you have the opportunity to publish your papers Open Access in all Nature branded journals. Articles accepted for publication from 01/01/2024 onwards do not incur any personal costs for you as the author. Publication fees will be covered centrally by TUM, no funding application is required. If you opt for additional services with the publisher, Springer Nature will directly invoice you for those.
