OA funding support service

Springer Nature offers an open access (OA) funding support service to make it easier for authors to discover and apply for article processing charge (APC) funding.

Not only will we be happy to help your researchers investigate potential OA funding sources, we can also advise on how to meet funder or institutional OA policy requirements when publishing in Springer Nature journals. You'll also find a list of organisations that provide OA funding, frequently asked questions about policy and funding, and a checklist to support authors at any stage in their publication process.
