Article Processing Charge

All articles published in Frontiers in Bioscience-Scholar (FBS) are published in full open access. In order to provide free access to readers, and to cover the costs of peer review, copyediting, typesetting, long-term archiving, and journal management, an Article Processing Charge (APC) of 500 USD applies to papers accepted after peer review.

• Local VAT or local taxes will be added if applicable.
• For authors from Low and Middle income countries, discounts may be granted on a case-by-case basis. (Please refer to e.g., the World Bank classification of low-income and low-middle income economies: https://datahelpdesk.worldbank.org/knowledgebase/articles/906519-world-bank-country-and-lending-groups).
• Article Processing Charges are required after a manuscript has been accepted for publication. The journal will not issue refunds of any kind after the acceptance of the manuscript.
