Brain Stimulation's expanding impact - Now immediately free to download by anyone, anywhere and at anytime

摘要

The brain stimulation revolution continues to grow and even accelerate. Business models around academic publishing are also changing. Beginning Jan 1, 2020, Brain Stimulation content will become fully open access. The author argues that this change will likely expand the overall impact of the journal, without compromising editorial quality. However there are some concerns to consider with this transition to full open access. This editorial looks back on the history of brain stimulation academic publishing and summarizes the reasons for this optimistic view of the open access future. (C) 2019 Elsevier Inc.
