PLoS Medicine Inaugural Issue: October 19, 2004
PLoS Medicine is the latest journal from the Public Library of Science (PLoS) and is the first new top-tier general medical journal to be published in over 70 years. In many ways, it is like other top-tier journals: it features original, rigorously peer-reviewed research articles, and is available online and in print. But in one important way, PLoS Medicine is different from most: it is open access. Thanks to the copyright license PLoS Medicine employs, you are able to direct colleagues to, as well as print, distribute, and reuse this research — at no charge, and subject only to the condition that you make it clear who wrote it and where it first published.
The first papers to be published by PLoS Medicine address international health issues such as HIV/AIDS, malaria, and the global burden of disease.
