Access Microbiology has been relaunched as an innovative open research platform. Read more about it in this news story and the platform's About page.

As a sound science, open research platform, Access Microbiology offers a new service for members of our community to disseminate their work rapidly, transparently and rigorously. It supports the publication of replication studies, negative or null results, research proposals, data management plans, additions to established methods, case reports, software development, educational and outreach methods, and interdisciplinary work. We welcome work from all branches of microbiology and virology.
