"I would really like to thank Disease Models and Mechanisms journal for the Read & Publish agreement with my university that has allowed publication of my recent article in an efficient and timely way and that is free of charge for the authors. This facility is very useful for many researchers with limited funding, allowing Open Access publishing without financial penalty to authors. The Company of Biologists shows very progressive thinking in this regard."

"It was a huge relief to be able to publish our article Open Access in Disease Models & Mechanisms without charge and I wish all publishing was this straightforward. Institutions need to realise Read & Publish is a win-win situation - researchers are supported to publish in high quality journals that everyone will read, rather than seeking the cheapest and sometimes least reliable option with the work often going unseen."
Dr Katharine Irvine, The University of Queensland, Australia
"The Read & Publish agreement initiative is a great advance enabling open access to research. The agreement between The Company of Biologists and The University of Queensland made it simple to publish Open Access quickly and fee-free; a great incentive to publish in their suite of journals"
