Abstract generation in progress

Reporters recently learned from the Higher Education Press that the international academic journal Vita, led by our country, will officially publish a print edition this June. The journal benchmarks itself against leading international academic journals, focuses on the life sciences and biomedicine, and its main section will be free for scientific researchers worldwide.

The reason it emphasizes “free and open access” is that behind this move lies an increasingly sharp contradiction in today’s academic publishing field: on one side is the vision of knowledge sharing, and on the other is the reality that the article processing charges of some international journals continue to rise. As some researchers put it, “The money for buying a research instrument isn’t even enough to pay for the fees for publishing two or three top-tier journal articles.” Industry insiders said: “At that time, the invoice for the payment was issued to the journal. In the end, they collected over 50,000 yuan in publication fees from us. For some European journals, they may charge $8,000 per paper, and some may charge even higher—up to $10,000.” (CCTV Finance)
