​Launch of a new journal – IJTLD Open

Funding agencies (including WHO and Gates Foundation) have recently mandated that authors must publish exclusively in fully-OA journals.

Our response to this change is to maintain the IJTLD for authors in LMICs who lack OA funding, while also launching a new title, IJTLD Open. This allows us to have a fully compliant OA journal that will enhance our coverage of TB and lung disease.

Both journals have the same Editorial Board with an identical peer review process and acceptance criteria. The only difference occurs after acceptance – authors with OA funding will be published in IJTLD Open. Further details are available here.

We are now inviting submissions for IJTLD Open  – see here.
