Next stage development of SciPost’s publishing infrastructure (SciPostPI))

Based at the Institute of Physics (UvA), the SciPost team is developing a non-profit open science publishing platform. Governed by open science principles, SciPost journals publish open access, without paywalls or costs to authors. SciPost currently publishes five journals in physics and is now expanding to other disciplines.

Working with several scientific communities in parallel necessitates further development of IT infrastructure and web app.

This project will upgrade SciPost’s infrastructure, allowing working with multiple teams employing parallel editorial processes and dealing with growing numbers of authors and manuscripts. Subsequently more research communities can publish their own open science journals.
